How far north in Cairns.?? Whats the plan with it...restoration or 'man cave'?

I believe this quote refers to a DC-3 which used to be parked next to the Belfast.

As for the Belfast itself, the sad fact is that there isn't a museum in Australia that can save this aeroplane. Even the cockpit section would be a very expensive wide load. Apart from creating a museum around the Belfast (Australian airports tend to discourage museums) its only chance of survival might be a ferry flight if the aeroplane is up to it. Sad I agree.
