When i read that it had been in pieces i did assume that it was being cut-up.

Glad it looks to be a more careful dissasembly.

Massive bump.
I saw WT720 today in pieces on an industrial estate in Andover, next to Russells Auto Body Centre, West Portway.

Just latched onto this thread.

Am I right in thinking that this is the same ‘WT720’ which is actually a Hunter F.51 formerly Danish AF and painted as “WT720/B” sat ‘up the pole’ in all weathers guarding the gate at RAF Sealand between 1988 and 2006

Indeed you are.
Be nice to find out where this and the Lightning pit end up…..

How do they get VAT on an airframe built well before VAT was even a gleam in some politicians eye???

The Hunter went for £5000, didn’t manage to get any other prices.

A long way short of the £12,000 reserve +15% +20%… £16,500 seems like an awful lot of money for a scrap hunter to me!

Any idea what the lightning cockpit made?
