As part of a weekend away, my wife had wanted to visit the Imperial War Museum at Duxford for some time, so the tickets were booked and we had a full day here.
Open from 1000hrs till 1600hrs, with the shop open until 1700hrs. Well worth the £15.55 each.
It was great to take our time viewing all the hangars, whether aircraft were in or not. It was not overly busy, so I was able to take my time to get the best shots of some of the more awkward angles on some of the aircraft. Maybe with it being
November and not the best weather, this deterred visitors. Anyway that was to our benefit.

Unknown Spitfire hidden behind G-IBSY Supermarine Spitfire
The list is in hangar order as we visited them.
Outside and on airfield ramp area’s.

Unknown Spitfire Fuselage outside the restoration hangars on the Eastern side of the airfield.
Recently reported as the “Spitfire” is a fabricated replica. It has no identification marks and is destined for export. I spoke to a guy from ARC the other day and apparently they have made several.
I can’t remember where it was going to but I think Canada or Australia.
