The problem is Hendon are very busy with the Hampden, and even that is proceeding at a snails pace - they simply don't have the resources to carry out such a large scale job in a realistic time scale. the Halifax is not is as good condition as it looks. There is corrosion and her back is broken. That means new longerons etc. and a whole load of other stuff. I suppose it is fair to say that they bit off more than they could chew with the Hampden.
Lottery funding would be a good idea - you would think it is something they would have considered, but then the RAFM is not the most innovative institution in the world...
