smeg. on both the blister window and liquid spring. ah well, you can’t have everything! It will just have to stay as it is for now then…..
Today’s update (9 August)
The Vulcan entrance door inner surfaces are now painted, but need a second coat, and the door ladder is primed ready for the top coats. The rusty metal plates she is stood on, are now shiny and grey.
The Bloodhound missile is fully primed and weather sealed and again the top coats should go on tomorrow.
The shop was re-arranged today and now sports a Firestreak missile as a collection box. (Its got 60p in it so far…..)
Karl’s Auster had an airing and looked superb sitting on the grass at the front of the museum.
The Sunderland Echo newspaper paid us a visit today to do a two page spread on the museum, and in particular highlight the ‘Vulcan to the Car Park’ fund. We can’t to Vulcan to the sky, but its the next best thing….. As soon as it is published, I should be able to post a link to their website.
I left my camera, so no pics from me, but hopefully Brittania will post some later! (Crew door and Auster hopefully!)
The webcams have been down for the past couple of days, but are now running again thanks to yet another John….
I’m off to the BAPC meeting at Duxford on saturday, so there will probably be no updates for a few days while I recover……unless Brittania can keep you updated regarding the Vulcan, etc.
By the way, we have two very interesting aircraft coming to the museum in the next couple of weeks, so keep your eyes peeled!
Thank you for your continuing interest!
