Ebay Buccaneer S2B

Stuart, Glen is getting on slowly but surely with 284, I think he’s frightened by the amount of work involved in renewing the missing skin panels, but I have offered a weekend of my time during this coming year to show him the basics and to deliver some metal. He certainly has no shortage of help and support from us.

Back to the thread, we believe we know who has brought 893 and look forwards to hearing what plans he has for the old girl.

I see Glen’s got an original Bucc cockpit ladder…. How’s he getting on with his project Bucc? haven’t seen him for a year or so.

This section is far from small, being over 20ft in length and over 9ft tall, I wish the new owner all the best for the future and if we can be of any help, then please get in touch with us.

For those of you who are not familiar with size of these sections, then this may help. I am the best part of 6ft tall and I am picture here on the left, with XT284’s owner, Glenn Cattermole.

An already cut cockpit is worth, in some cases, more than a complete aircraft. At least one can store a cockpit in ones garage. Complete aircraft are rather more difficult to store, and indeed to move!

I remember when it was offered to the Society along with XV161 back in 1999 for £1000 the pair, along with a load of components to complete one of the sections.

The worlds gone mad!!!

No it hasnt gone mad, people are starting to show with their chequebooks just how much they value our aviation heritage, and a cockpit section is ideal for somebody with time & space at home……….
