If anyone is responsible for the situation CAHC is in, it is Richard Spencer-Breeze. He has consistently stuck his head in the sand, despite being told when the museum opened that he would not get a renewal beyond the six years of the lease. The Council granted him a further year, and then another six months to vacate the site, and instead of making arrangements to store the airframes he has blamed everyone else, badmouthed the Council -his landlord- and whipped up a storm of vitriole across as much social media as he can while presenting himself as the victim. During the poeriod of the six year lease he built his empire, gathering as many aircraft as possible -including those such as the VC10 and One-Eleven- and even when it came to the one year extension all he could talk about was getting a Nimrod. He has had plenty of time to find a permanent home, as well as getting the museum accredited and creating a charitable trust to run it. He has done none of those things. And now the chickens have come home to roost.
