A group of WWII veterans will be reunited with the world's last
remaining Wellington Bomber aircraft to have seen active service.

Surviving members of the RAF Wellington crew will gather at Brooklands
Museum in Weybridge, Surrey, to see the restored plane on Wednesday.

The plane was unearthed by a team searching for the Loch Ness monster in
Scotland in 1985.

Staff at Brooklands are being presented with an award for the restoration work.

Thanks for the post, really interesting. I think it represent something good in our society that we can preserve part of the past. A friend once told me, "You will not know where you are going, if you don't know where you are coming from."
