    Boxted airfield museum near Colchester, North Essex is open this Sunday.
    The museum is situated in two Nissen huts and a third newer building which has rear section of a Marauder bomber on display.

    Worth a visit as it has some interesting artifacts.

    The museum will be open Sunday 25th. A long time ago a Link Trainer was donated to the curators and this is now available for viewing on open days. Although is is not in working condition it gives the visitor a good idea of how trainee pilots learnt some basic skills on a simulator of that era. It now resides inside the container pictured.
