I Did'nt want to ask the Forumites BUT !

Hi Fellow Forumites..

I have a awkward question to ask, It looks like I have soon secured a cockpit.

But its New home isnt ready yet. and I am stuck for short term storage,I say short term, But I would say one year Maximum, although I would want to get her nearer, sooner the better. Can ANYONE.. Or Museum Help??, the nearer to Bristol area the better

Her dimensions are 14ft L x 6ft H x 5ft W wieght 500 Kg

She is unusual and the only one of her type in the UK, and pretty messed up, but due to its rarity it is a Valid aircraft cockpit from the cold war that warrants saving,

I wont go into anymore details as of yet.. But felt the Forum with its Vast Membership from nearly every museum and Restorers and Individuals ,I thought it was a Valid Point of call to ask.

I hope you all dont mind me asking ?
anyone who could possibly help please PM Me

Merkle why not go to one of those places that rents shipping containers in a secure compound with 24 hour security?

When stuck for a home with the Meteor I approached a local company who were more than happy to store her in the corner of their yard for a few months at a more than reasonable monthly charge.

Oh well, you won’t be interested in the storgage I have available then at a site near my workshop. Its located near Warminster opposite a Farm Strip.

Its fully covered so in the dry and you have easy access to it any time.

Contact me for more info if you are interested.

You don’t make it clear if you are looking for a freebie or are prepared to pay rent.
