i would image a lot of it will be offered on ebay?

I’m all for saving it complete, why the hell not ? What good is a nose section anyway, 99% of ‘modern’ jet liners look identical once reduced to nose only.

Well said!

I never got to fly on a viscount 🙁 I have however got a certificate from ebay comemerating the last flight before it went to Africa!

I learnt to drive in MK1 Nissan Micra Collette! My first carwas a Fjord blue MK4 Cortina. After 5 more Cortinas, 3 MK2 Escorts and a Capri 3litre (I am originally an Essex Boy!!), I moved up (or down depends how you view them) to Rover SD1. Had 3 2600 (which all eventually siezed due to camshaft oilway problems) and a Vitesse. Now got 2 Lexus LS400s (ones a jap import, still dont know what every button does in it!) and a ’96 Rover coupe T-top. Hurrah!

I never forget in the early eighties as a toddler, my nan used to live directly in the flight path along the A127. They used to frighten me silly and I used to run and hide. Now I just can’t get enough of them!!!!!!!!!!!!

I ll never forget the disapointment I felt when I got my first Civil Aircraft Markings book, all those years the Beverley sat there by itself, I was going to make this my 1st plane to mark off, only to find it wasn’t there anymore! still, I made my way over to the airport and was given a guided tour of the Heavylift hangar and taken on 707 G-BOSA, so all wasn’t lost!
