Top Hat,
I understand your right on marinisation.
The thought of stopping the Wastelands production line to rejig for sealing up the airframe sent palpitations into the Treasury..especially after the cheque on the programme had been cashed!
Suspect that bubble wrapping / coccooning the beast and using the great grey steel tubs to get them to El Presidente's choice of location, will be the way ahead. Although I dont see this as the prefered option...with ferry tanks the machine can self deploy from E. Anglia to FRY...why go cruising? If required in place further afield quicker than National Insurance goes up...C17 trials already done!
Agree with having floating motion lotion station and fly through snack bar off shore though..cracking concept
