Unfortunatly due to Police commitments the already postponed movement of Buccaneer XW544 from Shawbury to Bruntingthorpe scheduled for 24/25 july has been postponed again.
The team are, (just looking for the polite words…. No can’t find any but will have to be!) really dissapointed !
The route had been surveyed and approved but changed at the last min by the police and then deemed to possibly interfere with race day at Thruxton. Stretching resources to thin to cover the move.
The hope had been to get her there for the open day on 5th sept but will not no be possible and the new date is at this stage mid sept.

Hi buccsociety
Here’s one to be going on with. Will try to get a walkround of the kite this weekend.
Thanks in advance, LesB, judging by that one image, she could really do with a bit of a spruce up, notice the paint starting to fade.

She looks in need of some T.L.C……..
