-'Mr Rusty' arrived safely at NAM around lunchtime today, so the first visiting cockpit is now on site for Cockpit-Fest 2018 - there's a mention about its arrival on the NAM website in this section! http://www.newarkairmuseum.org/Museum-Events
Presumably that's what you saw Wyvernfan?

Tissues at the ready - Around 3.15pm today there was a Shackleton cockpit section heading north on the M11 near Duxford. It looked like the van towing it had its work cutout.
