Thorpe Camp Lightning XM192

[LTFT5]

Hi to all,



Photographed at Thorpe Camp Visitor Centre in the village of Tattershall Thorpe near Coningsby Map Ref TF216597, postcode LN4 4PE. Two very kind ladies allowed me to photograph the Lightning but the light was fading quickly so it has been heavily processed. This visitor centre is well worth a visit and has many exhibits depicting RAF Woodhall Spa and its Squadrons and civilian life in Lincolnshire during WWII. The centre is now closed until Easter 2010 opening times can be found on their excellent website below:

Please do try to pay a visit to help perserve an important part of Lincolnshires Aviation History.

Very interesting place and well worth a visit.
