BBmf THUPDATE

Ive not been on here for i while so i thought i’d let u know wots goin on. The lanc is done servicing wise and hopefully should fly next week(fairing an all), PM (mkxix) is done, the boss flew it on monday and i think he was pleased with as it had no snags and after all it is the EVO version of BBMF’s collection. MK flew and that only required a couple of quick fixes so now the low level striped strafer of death is ready for buisness. As you probably know the Hurricane pitched up from duxford with its new paint job and some german insignia on the port side?, as far as LF is concerned a couple of spares are required which should then complete the rebuild/servicing. AB910 has now got an engine and prop on and is now ready for hyd functs so Stormin will probably pull all the stops out to get IT FINISHED and last but not least PS915 should have it engine fitted soon so us riggers can complete functionals of u/c and air system and lower it off jacks. Oh and the dak is knackered(engine). If we dont get them all ready by the end of April fluffy with start struttin an squawkin round the hangar at us.

The Dak engine is only a cylinder change/repair.
So no need for me to start struttin’ yet

Sounds great 🙂

What will happen to the Dak engine then? Will it be binned?, can it be fixed? I’m interested to know what happens to spent engines 🙂
