Coventry (Midland Air Museum) – Friday 12th July 2019 (Grant Robinson)

Hi all,

Back in July, a visit around Coventry airfield had been arranged by the Airway UL9 group to see the recent Malaysian imports. So with wife in tow, we spent a great day out on the road and also took the time to spend a few hours at the superb Midland Air Museum……
