Bae 146 tail in the woods

[skudupnorth]

Went for a cycle ride to my local haunt at Tatton Park in Cheshire to be greated by the tail section of G-TBIC being used as an art piece.

Not sure I get it - perhaps it will look better when it is finished?

Some pictures i have seen on the National Trust site show it with rudder and air brakes so i guess they are to be fitted.

What i forgot to add was. I can just imagine what performing arts may be happening after dark also "elf and insanity" won't have a rudder and air brakes in case any little scrote gets his fingers stuck and sues the council for vast amounts of dosh. Give it a month anyway and it will be covered in grafitti if the hedge monkies have not weighed it in down the local scrappy.

Or do I just have a cynical view of this fair land today?

Part of the Tatton Biennial it seems.

From their website: "This third edition of the Biennial considers the human urge to fly, to accomplish the impossible in fragile times."

The tail section seems to be more of a venue for performance art than simply a painting on a tail:

And the Colditz glider has inspired this one:

I sometimes wish contemporary artists would make the art easier to understand by us mere mortals.
