We have a nice thread on prop jobs first flights going so here are a few jets that should fly soon can anyone provide more details.
Hunter T7 XL577 at Delta Jets this might have flown now but I ain’t sure.
The Meteor T7 at Yalesbury a couple of years away but can anyone be more specific ?
The MIG 17 at Hurn.
Here are a couple I am aware of.
RNHF Sea Hawk should fly this Autumn 🙂
The 4th Lightning at Thunder City should also fly this year 🙂

The RNHF are still waiting on the seat harness for the Sea Hawk.
Once they get it they can continue with the ground runs and test flights.
The MiG 17 at Hurn won’t be flying until at least next year, maybe longer.

Sorry, justs seems to be taking a long time. I don’t mean to knock them either it’s just I’m impacient. Its a big job and I imagine there doing it to a tight budget.

What about the Buccaneer that was subject to alot of pre-season talk. All gone quiet on that one?

It would be good to get some idea about the Meteor Flight T7 it seems to be a bit like TFC Beaufighter. Does anyone know if the intention is still to paint XL577 in a Blue Diamonds scheme?
If I remeber I’ll ring Thunder City when I get in tonight and ask for an update on XP693 things have gone quiet since they said it would fly back in April
