    I could never build a convincing plane out of the stuff, but loved it anyway. My youngest has my hoard along with several others-he’s effectively playing with toys up to about 35 years old!

    The story of the Lanc has been well discussed here before-it went to Woodford for restoration, a hangar roof fell on it, killing a workman and breaking its back.
    Major parts of it then went on to Kermit Weeks in Florida along with parts from other airframes-cant remember which, but I know someone on here will be able to fill in. The remains of the rear fuse are still in the u.k.

    Cant see any good reason for resurrecting this old thread.
    Its been done to death already and there’s nothing new to add.

    Didnt the previous custodians of the Belle do a restoration job on her fairly recently?
    Was it not up to scratch?

    No reason to be shouted down Gordo(I’d disagree about East Fortune not being very well known).Concorde, whatever the politics and economics, was a massive technological achievement, and now we can all see what it was all about.

    On the Scottish example, I visited recently for the first time in a couple of years, and have to say the car park had far more cars in it than Ive seen on a normal day (ie with no special events on).All the passes for getting on board were sold out by lunchtime. You dont need to pay more to go and see the aircraft, just to get inside it.
    Dont see transport as an issue as its a stone’s throw from the A1.
    If you want to know more about M.O.F’s plans, why not ask Radar Archive?. He’s on the staff and is a very helpful bloke.
