Any of you guys been over to Aces High at Wendover, I had my first trip over there today and could have spent all day there. The pictures are awsome and I did pick up the odd one for myself.
Interestinly there is a cabinet with Guy Gibsons cap gloves and other items along with other memerobilia. The guys who work there are friendly and happy to chat about all things aviation
I have added it to my aviation map.

Yeah have tried to get to their last two Gallery days, especially the one they had with Neville Duke, but other commitments have prevented me.

It is down for a Weekend visit before the Airshow season Starts....

I've been to one or two of their signings which have been excellent. They have some really great prints on display but you do need deep pockets...... :(

Too right with the deep pockets, still I am very happy with my prints esp Lancaster under attack by Robert Taylor what an awsome work of art.
Got my first Trudgian print too.

Ascot, thanks for the tip about Aces High. Went there this morning, was offered a free beer as soon as I walked in the door and they had four pilots from the Tirpitz raid signing prints etc!!! Fantastic place. Will be back again very soon! :)

Seriously recommend this gallery. Even if you're not buying, it's well worth a trip just to gaze longingly at all those pictures and dream about winning the lottery!!! :)

nice one 58warren.
I am going back on the 27th Jan for my next fix and to pick up Lancaster under attack that was signed by the said Gents.
I love the place and you can spend hours looking at all the pictures.
