More recently our volunteers have been working on the fuselage of a C-47 Dakota (DC-3) which was rescued from North Weald in Essex. The aircraft was under threat from being scrapped in 2007/8 and the museum founders stepped into the breach once again to rescue her. The fuselage had suffered at the hands of vandals over the years so she really was in a sorry state. Parts and sections from a total of 3 C-47 aircraft were salvaged and voluteers set about making one complete fuselage from the array of parts and airframes. This is now being turned into a "visitor experience" where hopefully in the coming months our visitors will be able to walk through the centre piece experiencing sounds of the engines and anti-aircraft fire.
