Will look for the LVG in the workshop, are you sure it is the RAFM and not
the IWM it belongs to<Yes. I came across some British aviation forum where they were moaning blue that we'd wasted money on foreign relics when there were plenty of deserving English (which is what they really meant) subjects needing preservation. Clamping down on my blood pressure I read further and found a couple of shots showing the LVG against a wall, with the wings dismounted and stacked beside it. This does not, of course, reflect badly on the RAF Museum itself, I'm sure they have enough to and don't know what the machine needs to have done to it. What I don't have any information on is what what the time-scale is. I bleive the machine is eventually to be displayed at Hendon, but I could easily have got it wrong.Someone on this list surely has some concrete info. Care to share?Paul.
