Bournemouth Aviation Museum being forced to close!!!???

Manchester Airport Group have advised the Bournemouth Aviation Museum that they must vacate their current premises by the end of December as they wish to redevelop the site as a car park!!! This is in conjunction with the expansion of the terminal buildings on the south side of the airport!
What an absolute disaster for the museum which has been trading on the site for ten years now.
They have been offered another location on the North East side of the airport behind FR Aviation. Unfortunately it is totally inappropriate! (a smaller hangar for double the rent - and that's just for starters!!!)
Any views / ideas etc would obviously be very welcome as time is very short indeed!
