Good Afternoon to all fellow enthusiasts !
First of all to say what a great place this is and how good it is to be here !
Thought I’d kick off with an observation I made at the Science Museum Flight Gallery last Sunday. The suspended aircraft are absolutely filthy ! I could literally blow the dust from the starboard wing of the Hurricane, but only after some youngsters had written their names in it ! Looks as though someone’s managed to jab a hole in the fabric near the tip as well. If the Science Museum are looking for some volunteers to come along and give the old ladies a good clean start the queue here.
Regards All

Hi ST.
Welcome to forum. Bit of a faux pas there , I’m afraid.
That Hurricane is one of the forum favourites, and we have many discussions here about how great it is that it still has the original 1940, Battle Of Britain dust on the airframe, so original ,such provenance.
If you are keen on cleaning aeroplanes, there is a bunch from here who regularly go to Old Warden (Shuttleworth) and all rub together. I am sure they would welcome a new member.
