That's not what the garage meant when they said to take it for a service.

Not like you to be (genuinely) funny!

Working in a hotel in the Lake District, now obviously this photo shows it when its been ripped out and the windows filthy but the views a bit Monty Python isnt it?

I have a pic of me, aged about 2, astride Dad's BSA 650. Similar to yours, newer housing in the background.

Both varieties perfect bogie/ soap box material!

Queue of 747s waiting to be dismantled at Kemble airfield- it’s quite a sad sight

Not necessarily dismantled....they often get converted to cargo. My uncle is doing a bunch of A330s at the moment.

Passenger planes spend most of their life in the sky and fuel is their biggest cost. Cargo planes do one or two flights a day and spend 80% of their life on the ground, so it's more cost effective to buy old passenger planes and stomach the higher fuel cost.

Maybe but Air Salvage International, who describe themselves as “A world leader in aircraft disassembly " are housed at Kemble
