One might expect the Science Museum, where the E28/39 is exhibited,an historic aircraft ever there was one, to mark the occasion in grand style, but no, not them. Nothing.
My recent experience with the "management" of this organisation reveals them to be positively anti-aviation with little. or no interest let alone enthusiasm. The sooner someone like Alan Winn, the Brooklands Director, is brought in, the better for the aviation section of our national science museum. It's time for a complete shake up and clear out of the "jobsworths" there.
