Well if it were turned into a diner "and" did fast taxi runs whilst serving soup of the day then meals on wheels would be appropriate!!

Reality is these things are expensive, if the diner idea keeps the AC largely free of condensation does not involve hacking great chunks out of the airframe, ideally no airframe should be harmed in the process and allows the AC to pay for its own preservation then why are we all getting upset? If it's just done for a fast buck, and no attempt to see it as anything other a short term novelty till the airframe is unsafe then we can get upset.

Classic airforce had a Jets day on Sunday with flights from Vampire, Provosts and Meteor. VC10 had steady flow of visitors with queues most of time I was there for tour of aircraft inc cockpit. Looks good!!!

Was hoping to get to see her one last time before she gets chopped up...... Don't think I'll be able to afford the restaurant prices once she's done ;)
