Headcorn 23-Jun-18

[cheshireexile]

After a visit to Rochester I called in at Headcorn. Again a first visit so lots 'made', again lots of GA light aircraft but again lots of interesting items amongst the pipers and cessnas. A visit to the museum and main hangar tour (ask at the museum shop - £2 charge) were included. In case people don't know the Mystere and F-100 Super Sabre are no longer at the museum. I was told they left in "lots of bits" back in February. [Military Aircraft Markings update for April listed them as "scraped at Headcorn, Feb 18]

A quick sneaky request - There was what looked like a dismantled Hughes in the main hangar, next to Hughes 269 N7505B. Basically the main cabin and some parts. My escort, a lady from the museum shop didn't know what it was, so any info appreciated.

As with Rochester lots of photo's taken so a few after the log but the main collection on flickr (Headcorn, 23-Jun-18) for the super keen amongst you.

Just to answer my own question and hopefully help someone in the future.

After searching through back issues of ABN I found mention of the dismantled Hughes cabin in the May '16 edition. My mystery item is N58342, Hughes 269C.

For once, "one that got away" recaptured and brought to book
