Perhaps the DHL hub at East Midlands would be a good home for it parked next to the Argosy.
A Spitfire flew over Lyneham at arount 17.00 this afternoon as well.
Anybody planning to be at the end of the runway at Brize when they return?

Jon – Thanks for posting the photo of the data plate. I would be interested to see any similar photos of other data plates around the aircraft.
Great stuff – I look forward to visiting it.
Sadly the turn out of gliders from Europe has not been as good as the rally at Tibbenham a couple of years ago.
Heres a link to a list of museums in France:

ETPS had 2 Oly 2B’s in the blue colour scheme (VV400 & VV401). In the photo VV401 is painted to represent the ETPS aircraft whilst VV400 in the rear is the genuine aircraft that has been recently restored and based at Rivar Hill.
The 2 seat primary glider is called a 2G and was built and normally based in Denmark.
A few more from today[ATTACH=CONFIG]219521[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]219522[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]219523[/ATTACH]
Its a great collection. Looks like there has been one or two changes since my visit there a couple of years ago.
Wow! She looks just brilliant. Well done to those concerned.
Brilliant transformation from the very sorry looking aircraft I saw when I last visited Pima.
