Newark Air Museum

 Hello, Kez here! 

This is a blog post about my trips to Newark Air Museum. 

The first time I went to the air museum was with the Air Cadets. I had to write a small presentation for the new cadet intake to show the different sorts of activities you can do as a cadet. I will share the presentation I wrote about the trip here: 

The day started with us in our uniform after gathering our things from our Sqns van/mini-bus, we marched through the entrance in a single line to then form up normally outside Hanger 1. We took a tour 'round, while our Civilian Instructor was educating us on the turbine engines and how they improved over the years. We were able to go into aircraft that were not normally accessible to the public and look in the cockpits of the aircraft too! My favourites of the aircraft on display at Newark Air Museum were the Vulcan, the Puma helicopter and the wreck of an Avro Lancaster. I even got to go inside the Puma and nearly knocked myself out getting in! 

 Anyway, back to my more recent visit. This time I went with my friends and I spewed facts that I remembered from my previous trip and took them around in the order I went with the Cadets. 

Whilst Newark Air Museum isn't as large as the bigger, more funded and popular ones, it is still a brilliant day out with loads to offer! 

It's a great day out for nerds like me and my chums! 

That's all for now, bye!!
