While revising my list of UK military museums, I found a most useful
reference book was Bob Ogden's  _Aircraft Museums & Collections of the
World, Vol 2: Great Britain & Ireland_ .  It appears to cover all the
aircraft collections in the British Isles, including many little
specialist collections not normally open to the public.

The book cost me 7.50 UKPounds and is published by:

            Bob Ogden Publications
            13 Western Avenue,
            Woodley,
            Berkshire  RG5 3BJ,  UK
            Tel: (01734) 693276; Fax: (01734) 440954

The ISBN of this volume is 1 873854 07 2

There are other volumes in the series. The list at the back of my
British Isles copy gives:

    Vol 1: Asia
    Vol 2: Great Britain & Ireland (2nd revised edition)
    Vol 3: Benelux Germany & the Nordic Countries
    Vol 4: Austria France Portugal Spain & Switzerland
    Vol 5: USA - The Western States
    Vol 6: USA - The South Eastern States
    Vol 7: USA - The Central States

    further volumes are in preparation. All can be bought from the
    publisher's address in Woodley.

The list of military museums, if you are interested, is accessible at
the URL: gopher://nisp.ncl.ac.uk/11/lists-f-j/history-sources/files
or it can be downloaded by anonymous ftp from mailbase.ac.uk where it
is in the directory: /pub/lists-f-j/history-sources/files. It is the
file called: military-museums.  It covers museums in the UK only.
