Thanks for video link Peter,

I’ve seen both XM655 and XL426 make fast runs this year truly awesome.

Septic.

Nice Video XM655 is in very good condtion and makes fast taxi runs from time to time. The team that work on it have done so well you can hardly tell it spent about 10 years without anything being done to it.

Its next ground runs are going to be used to give the XH558 flight crew a bit of “refresher” training prior to XH558 flying again.

Fantastic video clip.

HAve been many times to watch her move and is most impressive.

The fact you are so close to the aircraft as she taxis and runs past makes the experience very worthwhile. The smell the sound and the sight. Well apart from stuff with Merlins on it cant be bettered.

Nice video clip…and I agree with you Peter, somehow ‘655 looks much better that ‘426. Must be the wrap around c/s on 426, never did like it.
