Such a great sound and good news, well done to all involved, I never take these rebuilds for granted.
Interesting Sky Dancer, my flying suit is more of a photo kit bits carry all and the protection secondary. That fire event sounds horrific, were you a fire fighter? This thread is a reminder of hazards around flying which reminds me to keep taking care.
For a while key rings were a popular way of selling ex crash bits.
The concept of streamlining was not developed back then?
Thanks for the responses which again highlights the wide variety of experience on this forum. My own flightsuit is an ex mil green nomex one and I always wear leather gloves. As an aerial photographer i find the many pockets help keep items handy and as well as protection the gloves keep windchill down when i open the window in flight. A quick look at what was for sale on line revealed that some new cheaper flying suits are made of a material which is an artificial fabric bit not nomex treated ,not perhaps a good idea.
HMS Victory…..https://snr.org.uk/heritage/hms-victory/
Tank museum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tank_Museum with a mix of some public but mostly charity donations including.Lottery..http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-40812423
so does this indicate a charity status might be the future? but then BBMF would need to fund workers and premises…
How sad…burned…perhaps one these would have helped? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-US-Nomex-Flight-Suit-American-Military-Surplus-Overalls-Green-Pilot-/122981387102 plus leather gloves..
Can you imagine the scene in the Lufthansa boardroom when this was decided? That some board members expressed disbelief at the costs and time taken and those who originally voted yes to the project had either left the board or been pushed aside by cost over runs. Then a final compromise…..bring it to Germany where we can do it well for less ?….. Without input from the specialists who understand the challenges and time involved you end up with a compromise which makes the return to flight seem unlikely.
