All,
Paul McMillan spotted two Tornado fuselages on lowloaders travelling East on M4 near J13 at around 12:45pm.
They did not have engines, wings, or tail fins.
Anyone have the story on these beasties?
And before anyone asks why this is posted on the Historic forum, Tornado’s are now becoming museum exhibits so they must be historic, yes?… [Discuss, ad nausium :rolleyes: ]

I work at Marham, in a tool store in one of the hangers (cilivian)……so after seeing this, I made a quick trip around the other hangers, and asked a few mates in MT (Motor Transport)….sorry to say, they are not here. Your guess is as good as mine.

Ah! Sculthorpe! Armed Forces Day line-up of 30-odd B-45s and RB-45s. Sorry, wrong Tornado again, can’t help about the Tonka Toys.

Didn’t they use to operate out of Sculthorpe?

Yes, under the RAF roundel (pre RAFM trade mark days, of course), and with RAF crews…;)
