One picture tell more than ten thousand words
This week, we invited you to just look at the pictures to assess what is achieved again although aircraft restoration and preservation is everything we can imagine except a piece of cake (but most of of time gives us a lot of fun).
This week a join team of the Museum, Comopsair, the praratroop and a private company suspended the Voisin de Caters to the roof of the Museum. A magnificent impression, the de caters is back in the sky.
We had also the visits of volunteers from the Aviodrome Museum in the Netherlands. Another occasion to establish links with European colleagues.
Discover also the progresses on other topics but one picture tell more than thousand words.
PS : Please do not forget November 12th 2009 : Next Museum special evening.
Hoping to see you soon, Many happy landings and take care at gremlins.

15.10.2008 - 28.02.2009
In the magical setting of the Royal Museum of the Army, the exhibition shows how many authors have drawn inspiration from history and military techniques. In visiting the exhibition, the public will go through all the collections of the Museum. Visitors will discover original and amusing showcases of items of the collections and how they are reflected in the comic strips. The two dimensions of the comic strip are thus juxtaposed to the real world.
