Well Robert Hall meant well, at least we got the picture and the BBMF got some free addvertising.

BBMF

The BBC were doing a documentry on the BBMF as some of the filming was done in Jersey at the Air Display in September and the film crew flew back with them, which is not normal for a miliatry aircraft to take civilians on board?.

I mught be wrong but there might be a connection with todays fun and games at Coventry.

With all the work going on with the Lancaster it would be good to put some of that work into the Documentry.

We will have to watch the news at 1800.

Sad

With hopefully the oldest series 1 aircraft G-BEJD of the new emerald owners possible giving it to Duxford the U.K. will have a least on Budgie.

We do not know at the moment on what the new owners of the rest of the U.K. budgie fllet are going to do hopefully some will be seen again around the U.K.

To see a well kepy Series 2 aircraft possible going states side if a couploe of commnets ago stating an American registration is being applied to it is any thing to go by.

As we all know there are a lot of non U.K. registered aircraft flying around our skies so lets hope it is not going accross the pond

For many a year I have liked the Budgie as it is well know as the Avro 748 is how I got to know my wife.

Should it join the BBMF fleet?

The aircraft must be past being a classic and must be a vintage type by by now.

Come on Britain wake up and look after the old British aircraft before they all die away.

The Move

No it is not going to Cosford>

Are fire crews experts in aircraft engineering?

Should this not be an observation from ground crew who ever they might be stating that the undercarriage looks down?

Old for New routes maybe?

Dropping routes means slots at Heathrow become available or does British Midland have something up there sleeve and use thses slots on something else or not.

Heathrow slots are valiable so they want give them away.

Would they be in a position to start another route there has been speculation that a Heathrow-Jersey route could be on the cards would the slots be given to operate this route that British Airways held for many years??

Douglas DC6

From the comment redredwine made reading into it are Air Atlantique looking into getting the DC6 back inpassenger configeration?

It would be fantastic to get a ride in it but at a cost to quote £1.5 million to get certified is it worth it unless some one with pots of loot can help is it a nonthinker?
