I did another panoramic shot of the american air museum, sorry it's not very good but there was a lot of light coming in through those huge windows!

These are excellent shots Woolie.

None of my business but maybe I should point this out before anyone else does. Not everyone here is a diplomatic as me. Your images are all outside the forum limit of 800 pixel width, especially the last one. They also seem to be hosted on another site which is against forum rules. Sorry but these rules are there for very good reasons.

I doubt it would fit in the T2 hangers or the Belfasts. It was outside for years before it went into the Superhanger anyway...
