Flying Dreams Odyssey Magazine, Fall 2000 Life on a higher plane Aviation museums show us the world from a new perspective. With its delicate structure of varnished wood and wide wings covered in pure white muslin, the hand-built replica of the Wright Flyer suspended from the rafters of a Florida hangar is a work of art. It can also kill you, as Ken Kellett knows all too well. "I'm the only human, other than Wilbur and Orville, who has actually flown one of these aircraft," Ken says, as he begins the "backlot tour" at Fantasy of Flight, an aviation museum in Polk City, Florida. About half of Ken's flights in the replica ended with splintered wood and broken parts the Flyer is cranky and unstable, as the Wright Brothers discovered at Kitty Hawk. But the brothers persevered, and that one little airplane gave birth to a whole new world of flying machines. The Flyer, and the risks men endured to get it off the ground, is a testimony to the strength of our urge to fly. Today we take flying for granted, riding all over the world in cramped, crowded jets at 500 miles per hour. But deep down, we know that's not real flying. We still yearn to feel the wind; we long to touch the clouds and explore the sky. We dream about it; we feel it in our bones when we look up to see a small airplane buzzing overhead, and sigh for what we wish flying could be Ñ romantic and filled with adventure. Fantasy of Flight is one of scores of aviation museums scattered across the country that try to create that sense of romance, to capture that adventurous spirit. Every aircraft in every hangar comes with a story of its own: where it was born, how it lived, its journeys and exploits. And at Fantasy of Flight, nearly all the aircraft on display are still airworthy and every afternoon one of the vintage planes is hauled outside to play.

UK Flying Displays and Museums August 2006. Site redesign and update in progress. Please accept our apologies for any difficulties you may experience accessing this site during the transition phase. Welcome to this site which aims to present a pictorial record of air shows I have attended over the years as well as pictures of major aircraft museum exhibits in the United Kingdom. I hope to be able to add to these pages as time goes on. Each set of photographs are on self-contained sections of the site and are accessible via the drop-down menus on the right hand side of this page. The photographs in these pages tend to reflect my own aviation interest - from the dawn of aviation until the 1950's. If your interest lies in modern aircraft you probably won't find what you are after here! This site is best viewed at a resolution of 1024x768 but photographs are also optimised for 800x600 displays as well. Simply choose the resolution you want from the index pages. I hope that you enjoy the photographs contained in this site. If you have any comments or suggestions for improvements please let me know either via e-mail or by visiting the guestbook. Happy browsing!

As a country with large distances to cross and a sparse population, aviation was an ideal way to provide services such as mail, transport, medical support and goods supply. This was especially applicable to areas where railways were not viable and roads were primitive.

Here is a brief description of some of the museums I've visited along with a few pictures. National Air and Space Museum - The Mall, Washington D.C. The left picture is the Rutan Voyager, the first aircraft to fly around the world non-stop, unrefueled in December, 1986. It was designed by Burt Rutan and flown by Dick Rutan (Burt's brother) and Jeanna Yeager. The middle picture shows the Hughes R-1 racer, which set a world speed record (352 mph) in September 1935 and a transcontinental speed record in 1937 (7 hours 28 minutes LA to NY). The right picture shows a Link trainer flight simulator, used to train pilots during WW II. Seattle Museum of Flight - Seattle, Washington
