Photo of the Day 18th March 2026.

A replica of the Avro Avroplane, an experimental tri-plane built and flown by Alliott Verdon-Roe, later founder of Avro.
This was on display in the Aero-Space Hall of the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester, but was moved to the Avro Museum on the site of the old Avro factory and airfield in Woodford when that part of MOSI closed.

On This Day 24th February 2015.

G-AWZP, Hawker Siddeley HS121 Trident 3B (nose and forward fuselage only), British Airways, on display at the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI), Manchester, 24th February 2015.
I started spotting just a few months after the last of these was retired by BritishAirways, so never saw any of these flying - most of the ones I saw were on fire dumps, or used as instructional airframes, or in museums, which I've always been a bit gutted about.

I had fun at Marvel's Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. I started reading the wall-crawler’s comics at nine years old, and kept up with my favorite superhero for decades afterwards. Exploring the displays and learning interesting things about Spidey’s history that I never knew (or forgot) was a real treat. For example, two months before Peter Parker made his costumed debut in Amazing Fantasy #15, his Aunt May and Uncle Ben technically appeared first in Strange Tales #97—with a niece named Linda. The exhibit covered everything from the comics to the live-action movies to Sony Pictures’ ongoing Spider-Verse franchise. At one point, I even caught Spider-Woman taking my picture. 🕷️
