Very sad if it can’t.

Especially as she is apparently in good condition, who’s going to bid on the full size waxwork off Betty?

I would be amazed if she were in good condition, having been kept for decades in the open air very near the sea.

Glamping pod? It's big enough to convert into a Premier Inn.

Perhaps Hendon might get it? They did such a wonderful job of looking after the last Beverley in their care.

The problem was that it never belonged to the RAF Museum,
