VP-CNI McDonnell MD-87 c/n 497767 ex DALLI/N721EW/N721MM

Yes Moondance, SBAC have their own rules. Its a bit of a grey area, as SBAC bought an ATP in several months before the show. ATPs are officialy banned (Too noisy!!!) but it was chartered by SBAC so kind of got dispensation. Obviously during airshow week and the weeks either side anything goes.

Apparently Abramovich offered to pay TAG and the local council “anything they wanted” to allow the 767 to come in here, as Farnborough is so much more convenient for his house in Petersfield. When coming from Luton in his heli he flies right over Farnborough, hence the irritation I guess.
