	Midland Air Museum
I don't think this museum has been mentioned before on our forum, but I can recommend a visit to this facility - well worth a visit and not expensive

	I agree MR, We took our grandchildren there about 5 wks ago. They even got to go into the cockpit of the Vulcan. As you say, it is not an expensive trip out and even their toys and kits are not dear unlike some places. Well worth a visit.

	Another hot topic. I wonder what will happen to this if the battery factory goes ahead?

	Hi Mick, 
Did you notice what's in the upstairs window of this artists impression of IKEA as an Art Gallery.
I suspect someone has been thinking about the air museum.

	Is the rail museum attached somehow to the air museum?

	...and it's still very good. Ask them and they'll let you sit in the Vulcan!
