Classic Air force at Newquay to close

Really bad news this morning.

Shock as Newquay?s Classic Air Force attraction announces closure | Cornish Guardian

Good news for those of you who live in the Midlands, as the assets will presumably be moved to Coventry, but pretty disastrous as it leaves nothing west of Yeovilton for the aviation history enthusiast down here. When you consider that Cornwall Council were effectively handed St Mawgan on a plate (except for the reduced size RAF site), they have made a total lash up of running it, and extorting £250k a year rent for the Nimrod hangar was always going to end badly.
