Ok, problem solved. Phoned the museum and they told me they sold the Jetstream fuselage to "Happy Jake's Campsite" last year so it is here permanently. The owner is in the process of doing it up as an attraction which is why it does not yet appear on his website. The rest of the aircraft was scrapped.
Posted on 18 January 2021 by e.stoddart1948@outlook.comConfusing !! Photos online show the fuselage at The South Wales Aviation Museum in May 2020 and it is their exhibit. So what is it doing here in the September ? No mention of it on Happy Jake's 2020 website. Also, where is the resat of the Jetstream ?
