What’s Here
MAPS specialises in restoring aircraft to ‘better than new’ condition for the Royal Air Force Museum at Hendon. They recently finished work on Spitfire I K9942 and handed it over to Hendon. The workshops are open to visitors at certain times of the week. Due to the nature of MAPS work, the aircraft that can be seen here varies considerably over time.
Directions
Rochester Aerodrome, on the A299 south of Rochester, Kent. Airport rules must be observed, the threshold of Runway 34 needs negotiating to reach the workshops. See this location on Microsoft Live Search Maps

The APSS is a voluntary organisation situated at East Fortune Airfield in South East Scotland. We are a member of BAPC. At a meeting yesterday with the National Museum Scotland with whom we work closely in the maintanance of their aircraft collection, your Society was mentioned. I will try and contact you today by telephone and discuss our enquiry.
Kind regards
John White
Chairman APSS
