I have just been reading an old copy of Aeroplane Monthly...

Posted by Tony C on Sun Aug 31, 2003 11:07:25 AM

...and it raises several questions.

1. There is an article about RAFM Hendon's expansion in which Dr Fopp says

"I keep saying that I want to start some engines up, but the curators go all puce when I say that. But I'm still the director, so if push comes to shove....!"

So, will push come to shove and will the curators be going puce, anytime in the near future?

2. What become of the remains of Hurricane I (c/n 1988), then located on Tjeldoy. Were they recovered or do they still remain in situ?

3. Is Fairey Gannet T5 XT752 (then with Polar Aviation) still airworthy?

Thanks, Tony
