    I recently visited Cosford and That Metal structure is encedably Tall. I was most impressed and I can’t wait to see the building when it is finished. I think that many museums are really in need of new housing for exibits not just this one. I do hope however that once that larger museums have all had a share of the lottery money that some the smaller ones will get a bit too to put up a new buildings to help preserve there artifacts and in our case aircraft.

    I Belive that G-HUEY was removed from display at Bournemouth in the Spring(?) and was taken to Noirth Weald(?) to be restored to flight. I think thats what I remember reading in Bournemouth Aviation museums members newsletter.
