It’s great that his daughter still has the teddy mascot “Mr Whoppit” recovered from the crash site at the time of Campbell’s crash

That`s an amazing sight. Blink

Puts a shiver up my spine as I still remember as a twelve year old watching the footage of that fateful day. I can`t begin to think how his daughter must have felt to see Bluebird back on the water.

I know they say they will never attempt the record again but I wonder if they'll ever open her up a little so we can see her fly once again.... Stunning sight to see the her again....Cool Cool

Where will she end up? with offers coming in from all over the world and wrangles from its co-owners it could end up anywhere:-
