Description: WW1 and WW2 History and aircraft are something Ian Baron truly loves. He also happens to be a talented builder and welder. So when he retired from being a millwright (someone who repairs equipment at a mill) he turned his attention to making incredible full size replica military vehicles. His incredible collection includes a 1916 Sopwith Camel (Snoopy's plane); a 1918 Fokker DR 1 (Red Baron's plane); a 1944 Spitfire MK IX; the Spitfire's rival, a 1944 Messerschmitt ME 109G in Adoph Galland's colors; a Sherman Tank; Willies Jeeps; a U-Boat in the pond; a Hawker Hurricane and the front end of a 1911 Pacific Type steam locomotive.
