The latest photos I've seen from Peter Reoch from a few weeks back showed it still under wraps in the Restoration Centre. I think there are delays sorting the contract from BAe to allow it to go on display.

No sign of it in the main display hangars last Sunday (July 14th).

Hi,
I was there on Tuesday and was told it is still 'in storage'...
Cheers

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Hi
Not sure if this is old news, but visited the museum today and the EAP is now on display in with the other experimental aircraft.

Visited Cosford this morning and was pleased to see EAP at long last; unfortunately, as "mrwrgj" points out they have run out of space and it's not very easy to photograph.
Whilst the Tornado has been moved to an adjacent spot, this too is not easy to photograph without a (very) wide angle lens. The Jaguar has indeed been moved to an excellent spot against the wall. I had hope to see the Dornier exhibition but was told it was temporarily closed for filming - one for next time perhaps!
Incidentally, Does anyone know what happened to the Boulton Paul Defiant replica when their museum closed? I was expecting to see it in Hangar 1 but no joy.
