Help this cause, you know you want to! Such a shame that I'll be away and miss meeting Andy Williams again- a true gent.

Re Lightning jet pipes, on the grass behind MT at Linton there is a jet pipe (don't ask me why) which looks to me to be Lightning style, it's the right length and diameter. Not in pristine condition but could be a good starting point.

I hear it has now gone, sold for scrap?

Shame - it was an enjoyable IP, homeward bound.

Might not be all bad news.

You could always wait until 11 Squadron are away,....

It's been tried...but unless you're prepared to dredge the entire Fens, you'll never find the bodies...

I seem to recall reading on the EE Lightning Appreciation Group Facebook page, and heard elsewhere that the owners are selling them so they can get the T.5 which is kept with the Tornado back to ground running and taxiing condition.

Best of Luck to them
