Guess the venerable old Sea Harrier counts as Historic now…
Just got a letter from the Norfolk and Suffolk Aviation Museum at Flixton telling me they’re taking delivery of Sea Harrier ZA175 by road on 27th July. Should be an interesting arrival.
They also now have Greenpeace hot air balloon G-BJZC among their collection.
If you’ve never been, its a good museum and its free (bit rude not to leave a nice donation though)…

If its one of the ex Everett Aero machines, they will need a lot of skilled labour to get it fixed!

sorry, one other point. Don’t they already have a Pucara? Perhaps this could be the embryo of a nice Falklands exhibition? (anyone want to donate a Vulcan 🙂

If this really is Sharky Ward’s aircraft, then this is a rather special machine. His book concerning the Falklands Conflict is a very good read (very strong but rational views on most aspects of the conflict, especially the Black Buck missions),
perhaps they could get him to open the new exhibit?

Another one avoids being turned into Saucepans.
