In 1962 whilst a senior apprentice at RAF Halton, I and a group of fellow apprentices, were seconded to refurbish a ME-163 (purely cosmetically). It was completed, from memory, in about March of 1962.
Does anyone know of its current location??

The latest edition of Ken Ellis's 'Wrecks and Relics' lists the Science Museum Me 163 (191316) as ex-Halton.

Here's a link to a web page all about it with some photos from the early 60s at Halton that might bring back some memories:
