Germany is great for old planes, lots of variety at the Sinsheim and sister museum at Speyer. Lots of museums in the former DDR have good stuff as well.

This is the Soviet version of the space shuttle.



I have a lot more on film, including Concorde and the Soviet version, you can go inside both. Will have to scan them.

All the surviving Space Shuttles. Got to say I was pretty pleased with myself for having seen them all.:

The Enterprise, on the Intrepid, New York


The Atlantis, at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida


The Discovery at the Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum, Washington DC


The Endeavour at the California Science Center, San Francisco

My apologies.

As every schoolboy knows, The California Science Center is in Los Angeles, not San Francisco.

Mea culpa
