Better it preserved at St Athan than scrapped. There's already a museum there so a 747 display would add to that and it would be a nice tourism attraction for the area.I am sorry but BOAC Jumbo should rest somewhere easily accessible to those that wish to visit.

And finding the money.The Concorde in Filton is now in a big viewing hall with a few other aircraft. They were rather slow to do this but the hold up was where to put the new building.

Post said obvious place is Heathrow. There is a Concorde at Heathrow which is not being cared for and will be in a poor state.
I never mentioned anything about Filton however rather have it in South Wales since this is a Cardiff thread rather than in some place where it will be left to rot away.
You mean stick in Heathrow and be left in a state like Concorde?
I was saying nothing about the concorde in Heathrow. My post was information about the concorde in Filton. Not every one knows there is one there,also a lot of people dont know they have at last got it under cover. To base a 747 in Filton they would have to truck it in now as holes and houses on parts of the runway.I think we both got our wires crossed about the subject and sorry from this end for confussion i should have worded it different.Post said obvious place is Heathrow.

I am sorry but BOAC Jumbo should rest somewhere easily accessible to those that wish to visit. Obvious place would be Heathrow or maybe Filton nearby the preserved Concorde. I have been to St.Athan and is not the easiest place to get to and is in my personal opinion, hardly the nicest place for a beutiful aircraft to sit where other birds are being torn to shreds!
