Just a heads up people. The 707 is in the hanger at shannon getting its number four engine changed.
So that wasn’t an engine light malfuntion!:D
Don’t forget the Spanish 707’s.
Rumoured that it had to shut an engine down on the flight north, so may be resident longer than anticipated. The owners are a sales and leasing company in Kansas.
I think he qualified as early as 1974 actually ? Grease was a few years later if my memory serves me well, 1978-79 me thunks ???
1978:)
And as reported in the ‘Sun’!
Spot on Lukey, all you need to know from the Sun!:D
It was parked at Munich on Sunday night.
Confirmed Munich, for premier of J.T.’s latest film ‘Wild Hogs’.
Lets hope its just a rumour, cant stand Gates on the best of days, this would really take the biscuit. Before I get shot down in flames, his cash would be great for the heritage aviation world. Bex
Sorry, Bill Gates hasn’t been mentioned since post 3!:D
Good news Lukey, bit confusing when your post is timed three minutes before the landing! (Flypast time is GMT and you are now in BST). Anyway, what plans after Prestwick, surely not across the Atlantic with wheels down? :confused:
Well, no comments yet? Now registered N2601L, todays flight was cancelled. Now planned for tomorrow and destination is Prestwick!:D
Nothing better to do on a Sunday eh? Seriously, great pictures.
Addt. info.
Well I guess it was a film star!

It would appear to have been N230EB so maybe it migrated back and forth. Records show it was originally French Air Force.
Still over priced, if you want to pay this sort of money, they’ll keep putting the price up.
I’ve been opperating Merlins for 2 decades and they were overpriced then and they’re overpriced now.mick
Correct, nobody wanted it at 17K.:(
Here are a couple of shots as N707JT as it departed from Stansted runway 05. Its a shame it got up so quickly, but it was only going to Basle with 5 on board!

Sure it was going to Basle? JT was on a German TV programme last night from Cologne.
I seem to remember reading in one of last months magasines she is not the first tucano on the Register.
I would say it would be the third to be registered. G-BTUC was registered from ’86 to ’96 and G-BULU was registered from ’92 to ’94. Both have now been de-registered.
John Travolta’s B707 N707JT in Qantas colours has been at Stansted fo the last few days but departed Saturday afternoon.
JT was on German T.V. Saturday night, don’t know when the program was made or if it was live.:confused:
