A good start, IIRC that's where Ken Follett did a lot of the research for Night Over Water.

You know how sometimes you think, "Only in America?"
I looked at that flying boat mockup and thought, "Only outside America." Neat.

The Irish museum

I'm pretty sure Maureen O'Sullivan (US/IRISH Silver Screen Goddess) flew in to the Emerald Isle from her home in the US and opened it for them!! :eusa_clap

Who said anything about "scale"? I'm talking about a 12"=1', full-scale reconstruction. Wimp... lol

I'm right with the Diamondback on this - one of the strangest things I ever saw was a replica P-38 at 80% scale...

With two seats. [huh]
