A visit here. Manston RAF History Museum in Kent.

I think this is a Buccaneer XV 352. Correct?

I wish I could state the names of them - but I can't remember them!

Is this one a predecesor of the Sea King?

Can't remember this either!

It'll click when someone says it though.

A chipmunk?

The XL 190 - just the nose.

and it's rather sad cockpit. :-X

Nice. The one's you were struggling with were a Wessex and a Meteor NF. 11 if I'm not mistaken...

and yes it is a chipmunk.
Nice pics

How long have you been lurking here and you still don't know a Chippie? ::)

I'm not a bright spark whwen it comes to identification of aircraft. I mean they all have wings and wheels.

But the differences are ever so slight on so many that I would really need to knuckle down to studying the differences.
