Cosford is also a better organised and more cohesive museum.

Hurrayyy…

Actually, in all seriousness, it’s great to see stuff move to Cosford. It’s more accessible to most of the UK. There is too much Home Counties bias in most things. Lets just hope that, if they expand, they spend the money on proper hangars, rather than more ‘Black-Holes’ where you need a miners-helmet to find your way around….:)

We’ll start again! Handley Page Hampden, predictive text on an iPad and lack of reading glasses, can ‘t blame JD for that one!

a very nice name for a skidmark!

being serious, would hope a slight polish/dust is all they do…

It’s another name for the piece in my pants. Well, you asked.

Large scale housing development built in former brick pit area on the south side of Peterborough . Surrounds the Serpentine Green shopping centre .
Hardly worthy of preservation unless your a fan of 1990’s generic developments!

If true, don’t expect to see the restoration any time soon!

Wellington, Do17, Typhoon prototype, Kestrel, Hampton just to name a few!

Those guys at the MBCC have certainly got their work cut out!

It belongs to the RAFM so the restoration centre at Cosford would seem favourite
