This isn’t twitter, you might want to add some more details. Are you saying it is closing down?

At the moment, nothing confirmed from what I can find although the owners have their sights set on car storage. Unless Google is telling us something different and my search skills are lacking.

Bruntingthorpe does a lot of different things.

You started the thread, how about fleshing it out!

Cycle passed yesterday and the brand new Cox Automotive sign now dominates the entrance to the airfield.
Won't surprise me if they turn the site over to their fleet and auction operations.

Sounds like it's game over for the jets. Google didn't come up with anything (shame on you OP), but being a member of some fb groups helps. Looks like the entire operation has been sold and some aircraft groups are looking at relocating.

What this means for the big stuff like the Victor, Nimrod and Guppy remains to be seen, some of the others can be moved more easily/cheaply.

Be nice to see some official announcement rather than relying on web rumour might help.

Storage of everything/anything - cars, lorries, buses etc has been steadily increasing for years. I guess that's a far more lucrative revenue stream.

Found this from Feb on Google but unless the OP stops playing silly buggers & tells us what the latest is we're none the wiser.
