I did assume that the airframe was unairworthy beforehand.

Conversely, if it were flyable, why not fly it into Hixton and asset-strip it there? The job is being done anyway and I am sure that 1 artic full of salvagable parts being trucked back to Lyneham would be cheaper than 3 or 4 low-loaders taking the airframe away. Just a thought, not worth losing sleep over.
