Although there are two hampdens at East Kirkby, i think that only one of them is under restoration and that is the one in the workshop. Sadly the gentlemen who was restoring it passed away but i think those involved did have the intention of continuing on with the restoration. Whether it will be or not i do not know.
Cees, i agree completely about the wellington wings, it would be great to see them used on the Lewis wellington.

Am i correct in syaing that the parts of the same wellingotn are at Moreton in Marsh? I think they are part of an aviation art gallery there. I think the remains there consist of the rear fuselage,
