Thanks for the additional responses. If we at least discuss the subject at this stage, there may be the possibility of moving on to develop a National Civil Aircraft Collection. By the way, the best airshow I have been to at Duxford was the one that included the Civil Airliner Flypast. Another good show included the formation of Rapides. Both were a pleasant change to the Flying Programme.
Aircraft that as yet are not in museums in the UK are A300,A320, B737,B757, B767, BAe 146etc. Whether they be British built or not, all of the a/c mentioned have played a major part in the development of Civil Aviation in the UK and unless plans are put in place to preserve at leat one of each type, it will be an opportunity missed.

Back to the top!
