    Yes I feel that this is all very sad. However the closing down of Aviation production in the UK started a long time back. As result of pulling out aircraft production we first lost Hatfield, then Chad. followed by Brough, Prestwick, Dunfold in no particular order.
    We lost the skills base for present and future generations and something which this country is top of the league in doing wiping out the economic base of the communitys involved.
    One day someone will write a book which should have a title ‘HOW TO SCREW UP AN INDUSTRY WITHOUT REALLY TRYING.
    However in the UK’s case the industry in question can be anyone from a list of several.

    So very sad, wish more than anything that this was not happening, greatest loss is the men and women that once used this equipment in their day to day work.
    I am however glad you put this up, very tempted to bid bid for stuff, but were the hell would I put it,…other than to donate it to like of Elvington.

    Which ever way you put it, it’s still mad to have carriers and sell/scrap the aircraft which fly from them.

    Very SAD DAY

    As reported of Radio 4, the 4 Harriers caught by photo above are the LAST flight from a British carrier.
    This is a very sad day.

    I so so wanted it to be Sabine Schmitz, now if her voice was on my Sat nav I’d listen and do what she said instead of shouting ‘Get a life bitch’ like you do! Don’t you?
