SOUTHAMPTON AERONAUTICA
MUSEUM
PLANS WITHDRAWN
Aeronautica was due to be located in Southampton Docks, owned by Associated British Ports (ABP).
Under a new plan for the area, Red Funnel's ferry operations could move to the site as part of a £500m wider regeneration of the city's waterfront.
This is a bitter disappointment for the DLSRT but we are determined to find another site.
------------------------
Update 18h November 2010
Things are starting to happen
at the Aeronautica site with arrival of the Calshot Spit Light Vessel on site.
This will be closely followed by the workshop which should be up by Christmas.
This will be used by
members of the consortium in conjunction with the City College in Southampton as
a training centre.
Part of the workshops will be used to restore smaller Little Ships as described
above.
