Now lying outside the Devonair hangar, cluttering the place up. Very unsightly. How much did it cost to transport that thing about half a mile?? Makes me wonder why the cash that must have been spent on transportation costs could have been better used restoring the complete example that flew in to Kemble, and getting her back to taxying condition…

Tin hat on…

Tin hat on indeed Sir! It was dissapointing to read your comments above as clearly you have no understanding of the situation. To clarify this see my note below:

The costs of moving (and more importantly storing) a dismantled Britannia run into the thousands so unless a permanent home can be found, there was really no point in moving her to yet another storage location. Kemble is owned by a number of individuals and when the lease for the old BAC hanger ran out (includes the land next to the hangar where G-ANCF had been placed) the owners wanted the site clear. So the BAPT had no choice but to move her somewhere. As no permanent home has been found, the friendly and supportive team at Devonair offered her a resting place FOC. Therefore she was moved the short distance across the airfield, and here she’ll stay for the immediate future.
