There is a Basset CC1 with the Boscombe Down Aviation Collection and examples of the 206 at Brooklands and the Midland Air Museum.
Roger Smith.
Thank you Roger
Corbyn is damned if he does, and damned if he doesn’t, and the Tories have been very careful to place him there. This is as much about destroying the Labour party as it is about ISIL.
The Tories don’t have a very good press either at the moment.
I thought Corbyn came over pretty well on the Andrew Marr programme on Sunday.

Too much about the cold war role of the Vulcan.
It’s a shame they couldn’t have included film of him at the (actual) last flight.
That’s a bit political 🙂

As someone suggested on the radio this morning. Cameron wants the RAF to go in and
use Brimstone as a sales pitch.
How utterly ridiculous……….. probably :rolleyes:

A bizarre way of looking at the preservation of our heritage: presumably the sort of thinking which resulted in all our WW1 aircraft individual RFC record cards being binned. It might have seemed like they had ‘limited appeal’ at the time, but many curse that decision in wise hindsight.
Thank goodness that zoos don’t follow the same ‘logic’.
A “bizarre” comparison, but hey ho, who am I to argue ?
As I asked, how many museums have a Basset on display ?
A quote from the Telegraph:
Britain will have to put soldiers on the ground in Syria if it wants to defeat Isil even if David Cameron wins a parliamentary
vote for airstrikes, one of the UK’s most senior military figures has signalled.
The stark message came as former military leaders and a senior MP warned the RAF will not be able to sustain an effective
bombing campaign because of a lack of aircraft.
Wow, none of us saw that one coming !! :rolleyes:

Eh? So we only preserve our aviation heritage if it has mass appeal? Thank goodness this isn’t the case.
I am merely pointing out that an aircraft such as the Basset, might have limited appeal to the public in general.
How many are on display in museums around the country ? I have no idea, without Googling.
I hope the F100 goes to a good home. What a waste if she gets left outdoors.
Agreed. She should have been in the American hangar.
Forgive me Alan, but that’s always been the appeasers’ argument. Well the threat will be certainly be no more than it already is!!
I prefer to think of it as the “realists” argument Charlie. Only time will tell though.
My only hope is, that after we start bombing Syria (which seems likely), terrorist attacks don’t start taking place on British streets.
