Very nice. Excellent museum.
I used to go fairly regularly on Bristol balloon meet weekends, but haven't been for a number of years now. I want to go on the storage open days to make sure I see everything i need!

Nice list Graham - thanks. I'll post photos from my visit last Saturday later on after school. Taken with my iPhone so some may not be decent - but something is better than nothing! Dylan

hi all, I visited here on 27/4/11 and there were 4 Skeeter pods and 3/4 booms in the restoration hangar, only for a couple of days why the container they were stored in was moved. I read off XM557, XL767 and XN345 were on tape on the pods, the last one had "XYZ", there were 2 booms XL736 and XN345, I e-mailed the museum and a kind lady replied according to a official letter the serials were XL767, XM553, XM557, XN345. she mentioned that 1 had the same serial as one in a UK museum this being XM553 at YAM. I think XL767 has gone to Poland but not sure. so the one marked XYZ is still up for grabs... The jist of all this is with being in deep storage in the container they might not be known as here, ie no in the list above, but then again I think I saw a report of a open/spotters day and the container was open...
regards, dave...
