Coast-2-Coast Run 2025; The aftermath

After Club Triumph’s Coast-2-Coast Run had finished I stayed for a few more days to visit two very fine historic aircraft collections; RAF Hendon and IWM Duxford. Time for a few pictures of these two superb museums. To start with two flying boats from the collection at RAF Hendon;
