martylee Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) After a stop and go at the Trandum meeting I stopped by at the Norwegian Armed Forces Aircraft Collection at Gardermoen. They have changed the exhibit earlier this year, so I was eager to see what was changed. The new was a C-130 Hercules and also a few more german items than before, such as the V-1 and the 88. It was looking good. When I arrived two Dodges were parked outside. http://www.flysamlingen.museum.no/ Here's the photos, mostly of ww2 related planes.

N.O.S. Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I've always admired the utilitarian styling of those Junkers Tri-motors (and the Ford - what was the connection there, if any?), which might explain why I've always fancied the idea of running a Citreon 2cv corugated iron van :n00b: A very nice set of photos!

martylee Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 Nice! got any more? Unfortunately my camera is not feeling well these days. But I'll post a few old photos of planes still in the hangars. Mostly post war jets. Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie The Jeep Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Those Sabres are really nice. Always had a soft spot for the F-86. There's an F-86D in a museum 4 miles from me and it's the only D version in the UK. What's the RAF seaplane in the last shots? I have a feeling I should know it but it escapes me.

The RAF seaplane is the Northrop N3PB! I think it looks good! Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie The Jeep Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I can see Northrop features in that that I've see on other aircraft. The windscreen particularly is very much like the N-9m Flying Wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The windscreen particularly is very much like the N-9m Flying Wing. I do believe that these were used by norwegian squadrons at Iceland during the war. Flying submarine patrols.

schliesser92 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I thought that the floatplane was an ARADO, but the British roundels are confusing me. I can't think of any wartime monoplane floatplanes that were in Empire service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcspool Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Great pictures! I remember the story about the recovery and restoration of the Northrop in After The Battle magazine. Read more at http://www.wmof.com/n3pb.htm H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Great pics, I've put some of them on the frontpage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martylee Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Revisited again... I was very disturbed to find this already in a museum, especially when the airforce haven't received it yet. But that's tecnology! A few new shots of some of the collection.

mcspool Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) Marty, I think you will find the F-35 is some sort of mock-up / prototype. Early in the program they had at least one which they took to air shows etc. Thanks for the pics, really great collection of superbly restored aircraft. Like the Lockheed Lodestar!

This is the real thing! The royal norwegian airforce is leading the way. We're already doing 6th generation fighters. :-) Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
