No way.. really… that’s absolutely amazing news. I had feared the worse for the ole girl. Obviously time will tell if this actually happens but it sounds positive!
Thanks for the replies. I’ve no knowledge of wind tunnel models so I couldn’t really comment on that. I think it had an asking price of £175 on the ticket – but obviously open to negotiation!
Seen today and possibly one of the most bulky and heavy models I’ve ever encountered, a large cast model of an AW Argosy on a stand (it just says “big aeroplane” on the sales ticket).
