Purely coincidentally we visited Fort Paull near Hull a couple of days ago to see Beverley XB259 which they have on display.
What an amazing survivor
- flown into Paull Airfield on retirement,dismantled and moved to the Pongo Transport Museum at Beverley and then some years later - dismantled again (no easy task even just owing to component size) and transported to Fort Paull,Hull.
She looks to be in fairly reasonable shape for having been on outdoor display for the last 44 years and thus far seems to have led a charmed life,let us hope she survives long into the future.
