  Remarks  
The Gloster Meteor was the first British jet fighter and the Allies' only operational jet aircraft during the Second World War. The Meteor's development was heavily reliant on its ground-breaking turbojet engines, pioneered by Sir Frank Whittle and his company, Power Jets Ltd. Development of the aircraft began in 1940, although work on the engines had been under way since 1936. The Meteor first flew in 1943 and commenced operations on 27 July 1944 with No. 616 Squadron RAF. Nicknamed the "Meatbox", the Meteor was not a sophisticated aircraft in its aerodynamics, but proved to be a successful combat fighter. Gloster's 1946 civil Meteor F.4 demonstrator G-AIDC was the first civilian-registered jet aircraft in the world.

WL332 was delivered into service 18.4.52 and decommissioned 12.2.69. Now languishing in the Long Marston graveyard....its fate very uncertain.

  Remarks  
Werke No. 2088 was built in 1943 by Fieseler Werke GMBH. It is a rare survivor of the early A-model. Regrettably, as is often the case with Luftwaffe aircraft, details of its wartime career are as yet unknown. As was the case with many Storch, the aircraft had a long post-war career as a French glider tug. Acquired as a basket case by RLM Aviation Fairoaks, its restoration was well advanced when ownership passed to Peter Holloway in December 06. After being fully restored the aircraft made its maiden flight on 11th March 2009.

First photo on AC from Barton...and isn't it the most beautiful Auster you have ever seen ?!

Barton Aerodrome officially opened on 29th January 1930 with completion of the Control Tower (the first in the UK) and a large Hangar, which was designed to house the most advanced passenger aircraft of the day, the Imperial Airways Argosy. Barton became the first municipal airfield in the UK to be licensed by the Air Ministry.

  Remarks  
Surprising what you might find at the back of an industrial estate!!
ZA399 first flew in November 1982 and played a key role during Operation Desert Storm in 1991, where it was tasked with daring low and medium altitude bombing missions against heavily defended Iraqi targets. Known as ‘Granny‘ during the conflict, ZA399 was among 60 GR1s deployed to air bases at Muharraq in Bahrain, as well as Tabuk and Dhahran in Saudi Arabia.After almost 20 years service, the ex-617 ‘Dambusters’ Squadron strike jet was relegated to secondary ground instructional duties at RAF St Athan in Wales until 2006, when it was transferred RAF Cosford. Purchased by Oliver Valves Ltd in 2013, the decorated Tornado can now be seen guarding the entrance to their premises in Knutsford, Cheshire.

Avro Vulcan B2A (XJ823)   
  Location and date  
Carlisle (CAX/EGNC) (United Kingdom) 
April 4, 2015
  Photographer  
  Remarks  
The history of XJ823 starts in 1961 when it was delivered to No 27 Squadron at Scampton on 20 April. It was then transferred to No 35 Squadron at RAF Coningsby.
Long-resident on the Akrotiri Wing, 823 returned to the UK at Waddington with IX Sqn in 1975.
From April 1977, after receiving Maritime Radar Reconnaissance modifications (MRR), which gave it a gloss paint finish, 823 served with No 27 Squadron at Scampton.
823 was refitted and transferred to 35 Squadron at Scampton in April 1981 and subsequently went to Waddington in 1982.
Arrival in Cumbria
Vulcan XJ823 was flown into Carlisle on 24th Jan 1983, seven months after the official end of Falkland Island hostilities.
It had been bought from the Royal Air Force by two volunteers for £2,000 with around 5,953.30 hours on the airframe.
The tail now carries 35Sqn insignia on the starboard side and 27Sqn (Dumbo) on port.
