Pima was well worth going to, I was on the same det as BV. We were on the guided tour around the lines, when the tour guide said "And now we come to what I think is the ugliest aircraft in our collection, and it is British! "(as the Gannet comes into view) . One of the American punters pipes up "Hey man, you can't say that, there are Brits on the tour!" Instant reply from myself "Doesn't bother us mate, it's Navy!"
They used to have a Gannet parked up at HMS Dryad when I was there. As Dryad is now closed, I wonder what happened to it.
