This is extensively covered in the ‘Duxford’ thread. I don’t think we need two open so I’m closing this.

I think TFC sell a couple of airframes a year, thats their main revenue, as they are not guaranteed definite film or airshow work. Their overheads must be enormous – do the warbird operators rent hangars at Duxford?

Sad to see it go, although with the recent passing of Alex Vraciu I wonder if it might arrive in time for a funeral flypast? I’m guessing the timing is too tight.

I look forward to seeing what replaces her at TFC. Jolly good luck to ’em I say!
