Guided tour of the Duxford Air Museum (Imperial War Museum)

Thanks Paul brill video keep up the good work Bear Hull

Thank you very much sir, for this great tour. I had the privilege to visit the museum many years ago, and your video brings back memories cherished since...

Great place, entry was free, should be a charge,as places like this seem to close.

The Swordfish did a good job at Taranto too.

It's a good video! When visiting another city or country, every educated person must visit a museum. Visiting museums is very useful and fascinating. A love for the "eternal" and "beautiful" is awakened in a person, the beginnings of greatness and respect for history are inculcated. It is impossible to turn the excursion into something banal, ordinary and boring. The person should be a comprehensively developed person, cultured, educated, critically and analytically thinking, with knowledge of foreign languages. It is the knowledge of a foreign language that opens wide prospects for a person to realize his/her creative potential, career and financial growth. I would like to recommend the practical training course by Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language", where you can find lots of useful information how to learn a foreign language quickly. Learn a foreign language and realize your creative potential on an international scale! The international community needs creative ideas! Thanks to the author of the channel for a very fascinating tour!

Hi Paul. Did you know when the RAF had their first Stealth? Please. Because I think it was the 50s.

Nice to finally see a aircraft museum tour with a person with alot of acturally good complete information

Awesome vid mate, thanks for that..... hopping on to War thunder now to take them for a spin.

Paul as always a great informative vlog

In England, everywhere is a short drive from London 😂

Excelente vídio, saludos dsd San Luis, Argentina. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷

Another very interesting video Paul! It appears to be a very interesting collection of aircraft!

im so jealous that western australia doesnt have these sort of museums, which is understandable

Such a wonderful museum and some can FLY !

my grandad used to work for de havilland in hatfield and actally helped build that de havilland comet 4

Duxford and Cosford are the best 😊😊

Excellent!

From New York City

I lived in Cambridge during the 1990's. I cycled to the Duxford airfield ever so often. Nice to see it once again in your video. The airshows were fantastic. 1995, when celebrating the 50th anniversary of the end of WW2, even a Concorde was flying over.

Also good to go around the the hangar where restoration work is taking place.

It was a de Havilland Trident before the Government combined all the aircraft manufacturers. Causing redundancies an factory closures....and pretty much the death of the UK aero business

What about the X 1 ,Space ship one?

Thanks Paul, very informative and good detail. There was allot of eye candy in there but that yellow Mosquito ......... *drools.
Cheers

STILL wondering why kevlar was not used,

I am a 26 year veteran of the RAF, but cannot afford to visit Duxford. They would let me in for free if I was to become a volunteer and work for them for free so that they could charge others even more to visit.
Would be nice to get at least a reduced entrance fee for ex-RAF veterans.

Excellent, thank you. I now live only a few miles from Duxford, so must get round to a visit. LOL.

Wow, I am literally going to watch every one of these.❤

I can HEAR those Darts screaming on the Viscount! Lol

You missed out the Lynx helicopter, I flew in that one...bloody cheek!

Im coming on friday 31st this month from london then going to the duxford show on 1st of june

My mother was a former Ansett career staff member at the Swanston st Building in Melbourne. Where SIR REGINALD ANSETT flew from his Mount Eliza Home to the Building daily. Unfortunately his allowance of TNT to take control was the Death of a sadly forgotten Airline where people only remember Qantas 😢

Great video!
But I love our motherland and consider myself a Australian Citizen British Subject and don't understand why Qantas removed the Empire wording from it's name because the move from the British? We are still a constitutional monarchy and use British English everything

Went there last year. My fitness watch recorded that I’d walked over 5 miles!

It is a great museum

Need to make a trip

Excellent video. I’m going to visit soon and found this very helpful

Thanks!

Duxford is the most amazing place - one of my favourites. The airshows are incredible too but its better to devote a separate day to the museum as there is such a lot to absorb 😉

Duxford "The Imperial War Museum" is a fantastic place that I last went to years ago went all the time here to see Flying Legends. I'd love to go back here more regularly great video Paul

There was a Victor at RAF Machrihanish in Scotland that the fire service used to practice on. On one side of it someone had painted "Jim'll fix it"

The lightning jets were at RAF Binbrook in the mid 1970's where my dad was stationed. It is one of only 2 aircraft that I saw take off and go vertical almost straight away. The other was the F-16.

The Tornado was at RAF Honington in Suffolk and RAF Bruggen in Germany and RAF Lossiemouth in Scotland. The Harrier GR3 was at RAF Gutersloh in Germany. Fond memories of all these aircraft as a kid when my dad was in the RAF.

I liked the black bird and the Concorde

Another winner Paul locally we are restoring a Lancaster example that used to be on a pedestal in a park the wing box was cut when retired so will never fly but was in terrible condition out in the elements for so long. Had the pleasure to tour a flying example that came in for a airshow in my ontario canada city

Great video mate!
Did you ever get to get into the Sunderland?
My Dad was a tail gunner with 10 Squadron,and he would of loved seeing the good old plane he flew in.
