Regarding it's scrapping

he Army Museum director, Steve Maxham, said:-
"It never was an aircraft. It never flew. It was essentially an incomplete concept model, the shell of an idea. It was never structurally completed. It was never mechanically completed. It was never electrically harnessed. There was only one rotorhead produced, the second was not. There were only blades made for one head. There were no drive train components. The upper structures, both fore and aft, were never manufactured. The interior was never completed. In no way, shape or form did it qualify as an aircraft, historic or otherwise."
