Handley Page Hampden – more than a restoration – 9th January 2012
A Talk by Darren Priday, Deputy Director of the Michael Beetham Conservation Centre, RAF Museum Cosford.

Sywell Aviation Museum is pleased to announce this much anticipated lecture by the leader of the team behind the RAF Museum’s most ambitious project yet – the restoration of an extinct type – The Handley Page Hampden medium bomber. Telling the story of its recovery from a crash site in Russia and restoration to a detailled look at the type’s role in RAF service and an overview of the conservation work undertaken by the Nation’s premier aviation museum this talk is bound to be extremely popular!
