Super Guppy Turbine F-BTGV was retired to Bruntingthorpe in 1996 following 25 years service with Airbus where it has been preserved as a static exhibit.

A team of volunteers have recently started restoration work on the aircraft to repair damage and improve it’s overall condition and appearance.  More details here
