Bristol Britannia G-ANCF - Restoration Diary.

The pages below show highlights from the work we're doing putting Charlie Fox back together. What is shown is in no way the full story. Each weekend, and on some weekdays too - our eager volunteers are beavering away cleaning, painting, fixing and refurbishing. While this isn't the most glamorous aspect of the restoration, it is a very essential one!
