Scotland's National Museum Of Flight outside Edinburgh has opened two new visitor attractions this week.

"Fantastic Flight" explores the science and the technology of how planes fly and challenges visitors to use simulators and models to test their skills.

"Fortunes Of War" recalls the Museum site's days as a military airfield, with displays of uniforms and equipment, film footage and a chance to pilot an airship on search patrol.

Add these to the permanent displays of civil and military aircraft, including the Concorde G-BOAA, and you have a perfect day out for any plane enthusiast.
