The Osprey and the Bell have both been displayed at Farnborough. The Osprey might have been 2006.

Great pictures of a marvellous museum

I saw what was more likely a Skywarrior rather than a B66 but near as buggery the same airframe, just the naval version. (Did I really just say JUST? I need keelhauling maybe)

Nice to see they have a Shackleton AEW2 with her props parked 'proper like'.

Now then nobody take these shots down (please do find the A26 picture if you can though) I want to keep coming back for yet another looksee.

Thanks

It is.

After the withdrawl of the older Martin B-26 Marauder, the Douglas A-26 Invader was renamed the B-26 Invader.
