Agreed.
My grandfather, an ANZAC survivor, worked on Mosquitos there during WW11 and I did some of my apprenticeship there in the late '60s along with the current CEO of Hawker Pacific.
Sad to see the place's demise, however the history created there can never be denied.
I also feel for the employees - I have been in the world of hurt they now are in! All the best to each and every one of you.
