This is my last post from the National Museum on Flight at East Fortune, and I've selected a few aircraft from yet another hanger. This one contained a real surprise... a [presumably formally] Australian registered de Havilland - I don't have further details [without making one of my horribly wrong guesses], so if you can fill in the details, that would be much appreciated!
If you are ever up around Edinburgh, this museum is well worth a visit! There's plenty more to do than what I have shown, including various other buildings with displays, something for the kids, a cafe etc etc. You can easily spend 4 or more hours here [as we did] - so well worth the visit!
Anyway, the other aircraft are:
BAe Jetstream J31, G-JSSD
de Havilland DH104 Dove 6, G-ANOV, [UK] Civil Aviation Authority
Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer Series 3, G-BBVF
Britten-Norman BN2A-26 Islander, G-BELF, Scottish Ambulance Service
and... finally... hosts and tour guides for my brief stay in Edinburgh, Ken and Moira! Thanks guys!!
It's wonderful to climb the liquid mountains of the sky, Behind me and before me is God and I have no fears.

I can tell by looking at it that it's a DH84 Dragon, but I went a little further and found some more detail for you. http://www.rampantscotland.com/visit/blvisit_museum10.htm
