Bovington is worth the trip if the Conservation Centre is open to the public. I mean, the floor of the building, not the viewing platform. Another challenge for you Wink

sorry I'm wrong, IWM London re-opens on July 19, 2014.. not 2015 !! it was closed until then.

I still missed the Tamiya Hall, since they were assembling the "Afghanistan" display while I was there a few years ago.

The Conservation Centre really intrigues me, but I see the floor opens just under special conditions:

I assume you can get some interesting shots from the viewing platform using a telephoto lens (even this means more stuff to carry along, I usually don't take longer lenses with me).

did you see my gallery on Flickr? I took one photo of each vehicle in the Conservation Centre for records. It was a real challenge, since there were constantly people looking around the vehicles and you had to be patient not to get people on the photos.

Yes, I saw your gallery. It's a really useful reference.
It's typical of those special events to be busy and have many people around, but it's often a way to get special access, or to leverage the fact that some vehicles may be out and leave empty spots inside the display, offering unique opportunities.
