Yorkshire Air Museum

I took these photographs on a visit to the Yorkshire Air Museum at RAF Elvington on a rainy and overcast day in July 2010.

It's a Canadair CT-133, a trainer developed from the Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star for the Royal Canadian Air Force, and has a Rolls-Royce Nene turbojet instead of the T-33's Allison J33.

The aircraft in the background here is the museum's RAF English Electric Canberra T.4 WH846.

Supermarine Seafire Mk XVII

These photographs were taken at the Air Display at the  Yorkshire Air Museum at RAF Elvington on a damp and overcast day in July 2010.

It's a Supermarine Seafire Mk XVII, which was the naval development of the Spitfire. SX336 (G-KASX) was built by Westland Aircraft in 1946 and served with various units in the Royal Navy before it was scrapped in 1955. It was recovered in the 1970s as a bare fuselage and after a few owners, went to Tim Manna of Kennet Aviation to finish the restoration, taking to the air for the first time since restoration in 2006.
