Someone on the Flypast forums came up with a fascinating suggestion, perhaps as BOB failed to get to Cosford due to the runway issues, maybe one of the Sims could.
The more you think about it, with a glass door or the like it could be visible for the public to peer in and see what the cockpit was like, possibly with an inflight view being ran on a loop on the viewing screens, or even have it set up and running, with possible usage being made of it by the training side of the place as well.
After all as a sim it shows another facet of the RAF in peace and war, ideal and a novel display, if not unique in a Museum, also if it was static, the way Cosford is with the raised walkway, it should be possible to display it level with the walkway on legs, thus actually taking up little of the floor space available.
