Rolls Royce Conway

This week  after much planning we relocated the huge Rolls Royce Conway engine from  661 (fabrication building) over to the engine zone in the hangar. It was a fairly short journey, but a big move and was very well planned and executed. It looks most impressive - it's one of the engines out of our VC10. There's a little bit more work to do on the engine stand - but this marvelous engine is there for visitors to see.
