IWM Duxford

[Liam]

I might be dropping by at Duxford on my way back from an event in London. Obviously it's a former airfield so there won't be any model railway specific stock in the shop(s), but last time I was there I bought an Airfix Messerschmidt kit, so I'd presume they also sell Humbrol paints and a few other odds and ends. Has anyone been there recently and noticed what (if any) modelling items they sell?

Unlike the site, which is one of my favourites, the shop doesn't have a lot to offer in the way of models. My memories are of 5 Spitfires taking off simultaneously, a Catalina in flight. Superb place.

Its mainly souvenirs, teddies with leather flying jackets, books, die cast planes, maybe a few kits but nothing special of a modelling nature. I bought a Haynes Manual for Empire Flying Boats when last there, not used it yet...

When I visited for my Harvard flight back in September they had very little Airfix remaining in the shop
