Looking by the condition of her I woul dnot think it would be hard to pull thing soff it.

We have a lot of detailed video etc from 1995 when we found the Malta Hurricane and seh looked brilliant but when it came to lifting her that was a different matter and the wings basicaly disolved on the way up from 42 metres.Isnt the pencil a lot shallower I think someone said she is in about 60 feet ?.Anyway i think they will have their work cut out and is the end result going to justify the very high costs involved ?.Surely there must be other stuff lying around the world that coul dbe gathered up to rebuild an airframe that is a lot more stable and long term I would have thought a lot more viable ??

What propellers will be used? Cut down available ones or do these have to be reconstructed as well in a similar fashion as Historic Flying had to do that on the Mk I Spitfire set up?

And the undercart?

I assume the guys at the club have already gone down the route of considering a petition to the local council and government etc with their MP raising a question ?.

I think if need be the members of this forum shoul dbe asked to consider supporting the club with a petition.I for one would glady support a petition and I know a lot of others who would also,I am sure if the local community support them then a petition from them would also carry weight as obviously th elocal communtiy have the voting power to block any alternative plan or planninmg permission even going to ultimately a public enquiry.
