Whats happened to the RAF Museum A-20G?

What’s happened to the RAF Museum’s A-20G Big Nig that was getting restored in Australia and should have been in the UK a year ago.

Nice picture of the Boston IIIA being restored in Leicestershire in the newest W&R – lovely work evident.

Well I got onto the RAF Museum and got a reply, its still undergoing restoration and no completion or delivery date is confirmed yet. It will be awhile I think.

In the interview last month in the magazine with Peter Dye, he stated that it is continuing to be restored and he is “pressing hard” for its completion in 2014.

Has the death of Murray slowed things down at precision???? Such a talented guy and came across really well on the chasing warbirds TV program.

That could have been a great series if they decided to do some more.

Thanks Martin , I couldn’t find anything either, up till late 2012 there was various bits on a couple of sites and the RAF Museum had about its future arrival in their news updates then nothing. Last I saw the fuselage was just about done , though it had Stars and Bars with the red surrounding which was wrong, the red surround was well and truly gone by the time A-20G’s got to the Sqn’s in 1944. No mention of it on any site here in Oz either, its just gone quiet.

No mention on the RAF museum website as far as I can see.
