The Prize
The winner will enjoy a full hour 3D 'flight' in our Lancaster bomber flight simulator. No flying experience is needed, and no special clothing required.
The Cause
The hanger really does need to be built as soon as possible. Achieving this will save us from having to dismantle the Hurricane when strong winds are forecast and for the winter months. Continually separating the wings from the fuselage and moving both to safety is a major job, takes around eight people and causes the Hurricane wing/fuselage connections unnecessary wear and tear. In addition, the hanger will enable the museum to put on winter events and to teach more people about how the RAF helped the UK avoid a Nazi invasion during WW2.
