Thanks EGTC!

The 727 required a very major maintenance check – and has been in the hangar almost continuously since it arrived – a very big job indeed, and would be excellent to see her fly!

Yes the 146 is ex. Flightline, hasn’t flown since the demise of the airline in December 2008. A few of the ex Flightline birds have found new leases of life as water bombers in the States.

As with the HS748, another one which hasn’t flown for a few years now. Yes, in the livery of Janes Aviation, who were a very short lived cargo operator who tried to fill the gap left by Emerald. It was G-AYIM, but according to the CAA has been de-registered.

Hope this helps!
