there's a Gannet at flambards, a local small theme park type thing, it's in bad condition as they don't look after it, the cornwall aero park used to be down there and they used to have a restored beaufighter, but they sold it, and most of the other planes, to pay for the rides, that pisses me off, now it's still the cornwall aero museum, and they have

The gannet sitting out in the car park in a very run down state
a westland Wessex (well whopedy doo)
and the nose section of a shackleton which is pretty cool, but that's it!!

Good stuff, Roy.
Those two page articles you posted earlier look really interesting too. I wish I had a subscription now.

Me too, but flypast here is around $12 per issue! My wife went and bought me 4 or 5 magazines about aviation and WWII and spent about $50! I was happy to get the info but not about the cost.
