Keep the Trident, Comet and Constellation at Wroughton for the public viewing

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

These aircraft should stay on site at Wroughton and not be loaned be stored outside. There are equivalent airframes in other museums but not in the condition these are in. These are the best examples in the UK if not the world. Wroughton should open to the public for two days a week as a minimum.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Decisions about exhibits and opening times are made by the museum, not the UK Government or Parliament.
