cymaz Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 This is an unusual request and I am wondering if anyone has other ideas....once again I'm trying to organise our club display tent for a steam fair next year. The provisional date is the Bank Holiday at the end of May. I am trying to source an aircraft cockpit mounted on a trailer. We've come up with the idea of letting people sit in the cockpit and help to raise money for the charities nominated by the show committee. I would love to hear from anyone who might have such a cockpit or something similar. Has anyone done this before? Any help of any kind would be great, thanks.

Dylan Reynolds LaserCraft Services Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 The guys who are restoring the shackleton at Coventry Airport? have a shack cockpit on a trailer, might be worth getting in touch with them as they use it for fund raising themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john stones 1 - Moderator Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Doncaster Air Museum used to bring one to our open days, bound to be something out there in your neck of the woods Cymas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cymaz Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 Thanks again. I have emailed the Shackleton Trust and the Davidstow War Museum (I don't know why I didn't think of them sooner).
