My recent trip to Brussels

Me and Mrs Flyingspark went to Brussels this weekend. One of the many places we visited was the Military Museum which is amazing. I have posted some pics of the planes on display, hope you find them interesting.

There are more but I don't want to push my luck too far.

So sad.

I never spoke to Don, but always read his posts with interest and respect.

Such a shame, Always thought he would be a great guy to go for a beer with and just listen to.
