Dear Dan
After a few problems over the last few days with us having to pull the web page on grant this is fantastic news We thank you so much for that picture and you hit the jackpot as thats the aircraft that Wng Cmd Grant was killed in we think and to which the memorial service on the 28th will be dedicated to.

Thank you from all at Thameside Aviation Museum

Yes Peter she has flown, but not for many years and I do not think it would be good to try now as the old girl is 24 years old.

It took two people to fly here, one looked after the flying controlls and two engines, the other looked after the flaps at two outer engins i think.

we plan to suspend her in the reception area of the museum this will happen before christmas we hope and I will post more pictures of that at the time, we have one of the JU87s models from the BoB film in there now which will be re-painted and hung in our battle of britain display area along with the HE111 from the film.

Thank you Paul,

As we were sorting through the boxes yesterday we could see the parts were not form an excavation and must of been removed by someone as the aircraft was scraped.

We have now got down to one box of bits for display and a box which is up for disposal to who ever may want it.

Any further info would be apriciated.

We got to the hare n hounds at 2.05pm, the young lady told us that food had finnished but if we went to the next village there is a pub that serves all day, I ask how far two miles ? oh no just the next village she replied.
as we were on the bike, put all the kit back on drove two miles back to main bedford road,,,, NO PUB,,,,, turned round back two miles to Hare n Hounds to be told oh you have to turn left under the bridge,,,, then left at next junction to get to the next vilage ie the black horse !..

Got to Black Horse at 2.35 to be told that food stopped at 2.30.

so back on the bike into Shuttleworth for sarnies and a bit of bread pudding, impressed the girlfriend no end !.

still great show anyway
