North Berwick air cadets support the opening of the new hanger at the National Museum of Flight

Air cadets from 132(North Berwick) Sqn ATC were invited by the National Museum of Flight in East Fortune to assist in their press day to show off their newly refurbished hangers.
Two nationally significant Second World War hangars at the Museum have undergone a major £3.6 million restoration and redevelopment, offering an exciting new experience for visitors of all ages.
Built in 1940-41, they will house an array of world-class military and civil aircraft engagingly presented alongside interactives and films. The stories of those who piloted or flew in the aircraft will also be told through thought-provoking displays featuring uniforms, documents and photographs.
One hangar displays military aircraft, including a Supermarine Spitfire, an English Electric Lightning and the oldest surviving Hawker Siddeley Harrier jump jet. The other displays smaller commercial and leisure aircraft dating from 1969 onwards including a Britten Norman Islander and a Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer. Link to Forces TV coverage
