What the petition asks

RAF Scampton home of The Dambusters, home of the Red Arrows. R.A.F Scampton station museum is housed in one of the original WW2 hangers and contains over 400 artifacts and exploring the rich and varied history of RAF Scampton, including its most famous squadron 617.
If anyone would like to find out more about the rich history that needs protecting, search the internet for info on The Dambusters, this is too important to lose just for saving money, close one of the other bases, Waddington or Connisngsby ..........not Scampton......
