Latest update

Summer 2024

While not much may appear to be going on from the outside, we have been busy working away both behind the scenes and inside the aircraft. Several repairs have been made along with extensive corrosion treatment of the entire airframe. The platform has also been repaired so we can now safely allow visitors to view the cockpit up close.

The plans we had to repaint and re-apply the markings (correctly this time) have been scuppered by the good old English weather. So, weather permitting we are aiming to do this next year.
