I'm suffering from a warbird overdose... ;-)

Ok, this is slightly off topic... or rather not very serious.
Just want to share my weekend experience with all of you. Last Thursday I left the job to take the evening flight from Stockholm for a weekend in London.
Friday was spent in the Public Records Office (national archives) doing some aviation related research. It was great fun to go through the intelligence material on German aircraft to see how they built a picture of the enemy axis aircraft.
Saturday was spent at Duxford, checking out all the aircraft. I stopped counting Spitfires after seeing 6 or 7 of them? Started to chat with a guy working there, so we ended up remaining in the museum after closing time! :-)
Sunday was spent at RAFM Hendon. Started to talk with a guy removing corrosion from the He 162 and it turned out that he had worked on all axis aircraft with the museum. Very interesting and long discussions!
Wish every weekend was like this!
