I was over at Newark today for the Vulcan presentation and it was good to meet up with a couple of forumites; I learnt a few things about Vulcan Ops and hopefully this type of event will be something that we can build on in the future.

Had a quick look over the HS-125 cockpit, which looks like becoming another excellent project to grace the dispersal point at Cockpit-Fest 2012; an update has just been posted in here!

Whilst on site I noticed that in addition to the Harvard going into the workshop the Rallye has also followed it under cover and this will form part of the winter work programme for the museum volunteers.

Sorry, rushing too much … http://www.newarkairmuseum.org/gallery.php 🙂

The volunteer doing the Shackleton has done a brilliant job and we’re just hoping that the weather lasts so he can get more done!

Earlier in this thread a question was asked about the Meteor NF14 cockpit. I still haven’t been able to access the cockpit but I have managed to get a photograph uploaded into the Meteor NF14 Album on the website that shows one of the new panels under assembly!

News that hasn’t quite made it to the website includes information that the Harvard fuselage was moved into the workshop yesterday – more details to follow when I can confirm the details.

Finally I understand that a cockpit may have arrived on site today, which I believe will be on a short loan at Newark – however I’ll let the owner, who does post around here formally confirm the details himself! 😉

An unusual Object of the week has been uploaded this week … something else that sadly was lost from the former RAF Winthorpe site details as ever can be found here!
