16th December sees ‘Just Jane’ receive an early Christmas present in the shape of another overhauled Merlin taking the tally to 3.
We also have undercarriage on overhaul as our engineers strip down and overhaul the spares we have in stock. It is looking as though we will have a couple of aircrafts-worth of airworthy undercarriage.

When the newly overhauled Merlins are fitted, whats happening with the removed engines? Overhaul, stored as is or are they spoken for?
A couple of them will probably go for overhaul and the rest will be stripped for spares and put in stock.
When will they fitted, we will all have to wait and see.

Great to see progress ongoing with the old girl. Some positive news in the midst of all the depressing stuff elsewhere.
