Science Museum - Aircraft Hall

We actually went to the Science Museums Imax Cinema today to watch the Apollo-11 film [brilliant] but came out of the cinema via the airplane hall.    I haven't been here for years.

It was a bit tricky getting good pictures as the sun was low and shining in the windows at an angle, and causing too much light in some of these shots.

Lots of engines..

And great models.  [and too much sun light again causing reflections on the glass]
