Eap

Has the EAP demonstrator been preserved somewhere? I can't find it online.

According to this, its been at Loughborough University's Engineering faculty as an instructional aid pretty much since its final flight:

If your nice and ask if you can visit, im sure they would let you see it

... from the EAP. demonstrators rather dilapidated appearance last i saw it at Loughborough, hopefully in the future it will find its way to become part of the research collection at Cosford, altho given that they have dispersed some of this once impressive collection over the years im wondering if a return to Warton to start a collection there would be a more suitable resting place?

cheers, Joe

Thanks, guys. It'll go on the 'List of Things to Visit'...

Joe's comment gave me an idea: if you had a museum to fill (and the budget to fill it) which aircraft and artefacts would you choose?

The 'research' theme appeals to me, I'd try and show the progress from idea to production model: show the EAP and a production Typhoon side by side (with large-scale models showing the stages before EAP and in between the two).
Instead of putting the SR53 next to a FBW Jaguar and the Hunting H126 (as it was when I visited Cosford), I'd create a lineup starting with the Me 163, various rocket engines, the SR53 and models of the SR177 and 187(?). Etc.
