Seen being unloaded at Prestwick from a Cargolux aircraft from LA. Anyone know it’s destination?

Goodwood this weekend would be my guess, as IIRC, they are doing a Shelby tribute at Revival for what would have been his 100th birthday year this year.

I thought Goodwood but why send it to the other end of the island ?

Cheaper to road transport it down than flying it down to Stanstead or East Midlands, as it would still need road transport from either anyway, and the Cargolux flight into Prestwick would be a lot cheaper.

It is indeed included in the Tribute. Down as a static display.
