Haha getting very desperate lol 😀
i really want to know the collecting policy, if this museum goes head over heels we could loose so much.
As they say its better not to have all your eggs in one basket (i think)
In a way its good that your saving airframes but i am quite disapointed your going out and buying this that and the other. Its not a way a museum should work in my eyes, and as im getting involoved in the wz museum its a massive learning curve. We will stick to our collecting policy as that what will interest the people who visit us, raf millom should have local airframes/exhibits. Museums on the duxford scale are in a different league.
Merkle has highlited a very good point

Hmmm a tad paradoxical there 668…..
You complain about their collecting policy yet admit the stuff they have in the main saved from the scrapman you say must be preserved? Usually Millom have been the last group to be offered stuff before being melted down – they have at least granted it a stay of execution.
From my experience you tend not to look a gift horse in the mouth. If someone offers you a plane you take it! Then once you have it safely stored you can decide if it is something you want to keep or failing that it is a bargaining chip to exchange for something you do.
Finally, you do know Millom has several sites that cover all aspects of aviation and that the unrestored airframes are only going to the restoration facility?
