Cobra strikes Wallop

[ATTACH]161004[/ATTACH]

Now that the new extension has been completed the Cobra is now back on permenant display (it used to have to be removed every time the Army Air Corps held a ‘wings parade’ and frankley it was a bit of a bug##r to move). It has now taken up a position where it need to shift again as has the Chipmunk and runway control caravan.
The runway control caravan should have a ‘Kill’ marking as a wayward Chipmunk once removed a wing against it. The accident report contains one of the best typos I’ve ever seen. Describing the accident it states that “after losing a wing the aircarft became inverted and slid for 30 years before coming to a halt”. 😀
