Join me on a tour of the amazing WWI Fighter Plane collection at the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre in Blenheim. Photos can't do justice to this world class, in fact world leading, display of WWI aircraft. Peter Jackson and Weta Workshop have made full use of their prodigious talents here. Enjoy. (Note there are 2 pages - 1,2 - above the second photo.)

Baron von Richthofen lies dead on the ground while Aussie troopers pillage his plane and steal his boots! The boots were recently rediscovered in Australia. A maltese cross which was removed from his plane is displayed on the wall in the backgraound with other bits and pieces.
