Just curious, would she be eligble for Lottery funding if something along the lines of the vulcan to flight plan could be offered? I imagine it could be used for instructional purposes showing how radar systems were evolviong during the cold war etc?
Doubt the lottery would fund it, apparently lots of grants aren’t goint to go ahead beacause they are gonna pick up part of the bill for the 2012 olympics:mad:
Hope the sale doesn’t affect my Lordship title! 😀
Many thankks for your help! Yeah I but the book, but as I say, gets a bit tiresome transfering each year!
I think you are right! ,There are no airlines names, just British Aerospace 748 along the fuselage
The address for the organization is a freepost and they are based in the Isle of Man. Maybe I should fill in the coupon:D oh and thheres a b+w picture. The tail has a circle with 2B in it and the registration is G-11-22
I shall be working too! My boss wants to capture the market and make me the only M.o.T tester in our area working:(
Thank you :rolleyes:
The ‘ole girl will be celebrating 20 years on holiday at Southend next Tuesday, 19 December.

Bought my membership! The latest magazine has a detailed account of when she came to southend. Most interesting!
She made tonights evening news on the BBC, albeit Local, fast forward to 24 mins.

Never realized there were so many preseved worldwide! 😮
Ah a seat from the Freightmaster.
Just think JBB that may have been the very seat where they forgot to wizz the wheels down at Belfast, and wrote it off!
Well, I have found the seat to be soooooo comfortable! Maybe thats why they forgot 😀
Never got to fly on one and am really gutted about that. Still, I now have my pilots seat form G-BBDK, my Viscount Farewell dvd (has the beatiful sound of the darts!) and a damn good imagination!! :p
