Here we have a group of people who have an established record of aircraft preservation who have established a workshop and are looking for additional helpers!!
If the location was with an hour of my house I would be looking to see if they wanted me, no matter what my accent was.

Where did all the decent aircraft start their life ?

Lancaster ; North ,Anson ; North,Swordfish ;North,Vulcan; North,Nimrod Mr1;North,Shackleton;North, HS748;North, HS146,RJ70,RJ80,RJ100; North
and so many many more !!!!!!!. I rest my case.
The only two decent aircraft from the south where the Spitfire and the Hurricane and they had to build the Spitfire in Brum that is nearly north !!!.

Mosquito, Hunter, Gnat were decent too.

There is the small matter of the deH 60 Moths produced at Stag Lane !! Oh yes, the same company built one or two aircraft at Hatfield but that is Hatfield Hertfordshire, not Hatfield South Yorkshire!!

Damn and here was I thinking you were trying to set up the likes of the French resistance escape routes used during WW2 but in this case to smuggle people out of North Yorkshire…… :p

Can you expand a little on what projects you are planning?

Currently working on a MkII Spit, a Mk14 Spit,A flying Flea,A soko Kraguj Gunship,Vampire T11,and of Course a Whirlwind is that enough variation for you ?.(the latter is the twin engined fighter NOT the hairdryer of the same name).Then of course what ever else pops in for repairs recently this has included a Delfin cockpit,B727 cockpit and other interesting items.
