Of course you have two very big empty hangars close to hand at Llanbedr which could possibly be used for temporary conservation/ storage, Not forgetting Valley personel who might be persuaded to get involved as an exercise??

Yup, survey after survey. Meanwhile joe bloggs with his hacksaw and lump hammer is waiting in the wings to get a trophy, and he doesn’t even need to get his feet wet.

That poly tunnel at Cosford will be empty sometime soon as well. Perfect!. The P38 would be a very manageable project to preserve once broken down to it’s smain assemblies would it not?. Just as an idea, it could be left to soak in an average sized home swimming pool?

When i say ‘what’s up with folk?’, i’m refering to the powers that be that always seem to take hold of situations like this and then make a mountain out of a mole hill. I’m not naive as to the red tape, and recognise that there are hurdles to overcome before a recovery would be made, but the actual physical recovery of said item really wouldn’t be beyond the realms of the forum folk would it?. As regards preservation, again, this could be achieved with the help of a local museum. I bet us normal folk could pull this off.

Pathetic that it’s within wading distance to the shore, and it’s good condition that it’s still sitting there. Beggars belief!!. Definate candidate for a forum recovery.

I’ll leave that for HMS Vulture to answer should he wish… gets coat and runs:rolleyes:
