Driving back through Kent today, stopped off to visit the Lashenden Air Warfare Museum, a quite delightful little museum run by volunteers. It occupies wartime buildings on the old Lashenden ALG which was used by 'Johnnie' Johnson's Spitfires among many other units.

They have a remarkable collection of recovered Battle of Britain aircraft parts ( including several complete engines ).

I bit my knuckles at a series of photos taken in a wood in Kent in the very early '60s by a 'man walking his dog'. They showed several large, recognizable pieces from a crashed Bf109E which ,soon after, were removed and...... scrapped ! [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img]
