Another nice set of photos. Thanks again. My wife and I were there in 1994. An interesting place for sure.

Well done and thanks for the pictures. Don't they have a Me-110 night fighter there??

The RAF Museum at Hendon is the home of the Messerschmitt Bf 110G-2 night fighter.

Lambeth has the remains of Rudolf Hess's Bf-110 that crash landed in Scotland.

The tank is a Male, I do believe

Correct. IIRC, the males had 6-pounders in the sponsons while the females had Lewis guns.

Man....

What are you using to shoot this pictures? Camera/Lens/Flash. Thanks, I really like them.

Thanks for the comments chaps, nice to see that people can sex their tanks

The pictures were shot with a Canon G11 connected to a Gorilla flexible tripod where necessary, the on-camera flash was supplanted by my old Canon head unit.

Its a very good combination, not quite a match for my 5D but it does a good enough job when used properly.
