Default Old freighter

Back in the late 1980s I flew a British built turborprop called a Handley Page Herald. It was built as a fifty seat turboprop in the 1960s but it spent its last years as a freighter. I often flew flight from the UK into Europe to feed into the Fedex and UPS networks in Europe and world wide. There were only ever fifty built and the last unrestored one is sat in the grass at Gatiwick Airport. A group is trying to save it and move it to a spot to restore it but it is going to cost a lot of money. If anybody would like to get involved or donate please gave a look at the website at ukhat.org. If it doesn’t get moved soon it will probably be scrapped. Please help if you can.
