Ahhh, one of my favourites !


I was a bit upset when, on my visit to the FAA Museum a few years back, I found the Walrus tucked away in a gloomy corner.......hope they've moved it now to a position it deserves.


(Acres of space, of course, for the ruddy Concorde - don't actually remember too many of those serving with the Fleet Air Arm.........)

It got moved a couple of years ago to a better spot, although the wings were still folded iirc. I liked the pilot's description of takeoff in chop - like wrestling a washing machine...
