The recent thread seeking logbooks for the Enstrom 280C Shark G-VETS seems to have vanished, perhaps OP deleted it themselves?

I was somewhat sympathetic as I too have collected relics of a different type with plans for restoration.

So I have resurrected this old thread to make a suggestion to OP: Wikipedia indicates the Helicopter Museum at Weston-super-Mare doesn't as yet have any Enstrom helicopters in their collection. G-VETS could turn that situation around, even if it needs TLC just for display purposes. Parting it out would be a waste for an otherwise largely intact helicopter where time limited parts lack the required traceability for worthwhile resale.

As an aside, I was impressed that G-VETS still had a key in its ignition from one of the photos on the auctioneers website!! That is a start...
