Last year we hosted a visit from Revell to scan our Meteor T7 & Meteor FR9 (Mod) aircraft for their new 1/32nd scale Meteor F8 – a few kits have just landed in the #NAMshop as a thank you for the lowing the access!
They’re going fast!!

It’s a mixed outlook across #LoveNotts but we hope this won’t deter you from visiting – head #NAMusInside first & then venture outside if the weather improves!

Some recent fresh additions to the #NAMarchive have just landed - can anyone help us shortcut some research to id this #Lancaster being 'installed' at Rolls-Royce Hucknall?

On Wednesday 19th November the Midlands Machinery Show is taking place on the Newark Showground so we suggest that you ought to allow a little more travel time when visiting the museum.
There’s also some extra advice in here:

We're getting this feel in the #LoveNotts sky tonight!

Wrap up warm if you’re visiting us this week, at least it’s dry today but there’s a chill in the air! #EveryNAMvisitCounts
Lots to see #NAMusInside

Whilst not wishing to tempt fate too much, there’s talk of snow in the forecast for next week & we’re reminded of these photos taken during the same week in 2024! (20.11.24)

Now the only example of the type under cover in a UK museum, of course, which tells a very sad story.
