A late ex B.A.team leader of the Vanguard /Merchantman at Brooklands was moaning to a senior manager of Britsh Airways about the state of the aircraft at Cosford before they were broken up and he agreed that Cosford was not the best choice to display them as all the expertise technically was at Heathrow and they could only send a gang of apprentices up there about once a year to maintain them when they needed a larger amount of T.L.C.to keep them up to scratch and in the end they rotted and became dangerous then I believe the R.A.F wanted the space
Why keep BOAB at Heathrow? there are plenty of exhibits round the country to visit and see inside not a snatched look driving past.
My shelter awaits.
