I heard rumour several months back from a Gosshawk employee that there was a possibility of MoF moving some of their jets to Mesa for display. I guess one of the reasons is because there is considerable time left on the lease of the buildings. Another, I assume, is to open up some additional space at MoF for other displays. Several of the jets that were on display at Champlin were loaners (F-4 and F-86 come to mind)and may have moved on already. If I recall I think there was some discussion that some of the jets may be moved across the ramp to the CAF museum. Of course, now that MoF have made the decision to go ahead with a jet museum all those discussions may have gone out the window. I will probably be out at Gosshawk again in then near future and I will bend somebodies ear for some details.
