XJ40.com annual meeting @ RAF Cosford Museum 9-7-2017

Postby pimgmx » Thu Jun 22, 2017 7:45 pm

Following on from the success of Dunkeld the venue for the UK National XJ40.com meet will be the RAF Museum at Cosford in Shropshire. XJ40.com is a very informal & friendly bunch, and have opened up their event for ALL XJ40/XJ81 owners.

With roughly 20 cars confirmed it will probably be one of the largest XJ40 gatherings of the year!

In comparison to last year's get together in Dunkeld, this will be a less hectic event so we can enjoy the museum's fantastic collection of aircraft. Highlights are the Cold War V Bombers - Vulcan, Victor and Valiant - all under one roof.
Entrance to the museum is free, parking is £4, and there will be some cracking photo opportunities as well!

The nice lady at Cosford arranged a dedicated parking spot next to the Cold War Museum, i.e. NOT the normal car park, see the little map below. It's difficult to plan for photo ops in advance, but there is currently a Hercules in residence which would do nicely thank you. :wink:
