G-APFJ Boeing 707 to be scrapped RAF Museum in Cosford UK

I read on a website (http://www.aviation-friends-cologne..../Boeing707.htm) that the RAF museum in Cosford is going to scrap their Boeing 707, G-APFJ this year.

See link: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1011294/L/

I find this a disgrace. Why is it that allmost no transport aircraft are being kept (convair 880 / 990, Boeing 707, DC-8). Looks like we have to rely on Mr. Travolta and others to preserve a piece of history.
