This is Graham, my wonderful husband, standing in front of the Kitty Hawk Fighter Plane.    He had a great time checking them all out!

I was amazed at how this one had wings that folded – I’m told it was so they could be maneuvered onto the carrier ships.  Sorry if my lack of knowledge is showing!

Australian War Memorial: Avro Lancaster

Graham and I visited our daughter in Canberra on the long weekend in March and whilst there, we visited the Australian War Memorial. The pics for the next few days are from the Memorial.  If you are into war history or planes, I’m sure you’ll enjoy these!  I’ve been trying to locate the names for them as I neglected to write them down as I was photographing them!  Fortunately Graham knew some of them.
