As keeps being repeated here, it is not up to MAM to scrap it, or to make it known to the preservation world. It is owned by the NMUSAF, who are the sole arbiter of what happens to it should MAM wish to terminate the loan agreement.

But if they do wish to part with it, then making it known and giving others the chance to contact the NMUSAF about a possible trade or purchase is surely in the best interests of the airframes future, before it’s too late to do so!
