Thanks Steve for that illuminating report, lack of CRM rears its head again.:(
Been a while since I last asked, any update to Mr Rusty’s progress….?:)
Or update on the photos? Move them to Photobucket, upload them………:)
30 ones sold to Turkish!!!!
I swear this time i am serious!Paolo
Maybe, the news statement says contract negotiations have started on the ATAK project.
With JT just appearing on tonights “Friday Night With Jonathan Ross” ( recorded yesterday ), he mentioned he arrived in the UK in his 707.Anyone know where it landed, and is it still here?
Obviously Stansted, don’t know!
IF it is c/n 14148, here it is as N587PR later in life but not sure if we have proved it was G-AVTU?:confused:
I think you will find it is the company demostrator G-AVTU. Do a search on airliners.net
That’s what I was doing yesterday and didn’t find it then and this photo doesn’t prove it either!
Reducing bandwith.
Interesting aircraft, thanks.
But is it worth £7600? Haven’t heard an opinion yet!:D
Huh?? If you knew anything about Doves/Devons and Herons then you’d realise those props belong to the far aircraft. And that makes it a Heron.:cool:
Conceded:o
516L? Give up. Spent an hour on it, must be number 516 of the ********
Air Force.:)
Heron – look closely and you can see two sets of props (ie four engines).
Of course you can see two sets of props, you are looking at two noses!:D
Ah, England as it was then! At least Melvyn won’t be worried about any competition locally. Good news on the rstoration.
A much better way of spending the afternoon than watching sport on T.V., this would presumably be in the U.K.?
Addt. info.
This is proctor 3 G-AKEX on barnstormers.
http://www.barnstormers.com/cat.php?mode=search&PHPSESSID=d0133cabe9159c137870144201091fe1Asking 6k complete aircraft. Accident damage not known, viable for rebuild to flying condition.
I don’t dispute it is on Barnstormers but where, not Percival, restoration, salvage or rebuilder? It is difficult to see a value of 6k, that would be £££’s?
Edit, Found it after search, is reg. SE-BTR, I would say the price would be nearer £7600.
Another one of the ever increasing number of vintage aircraft that stop off in the UK then cross the “pond” never to be seen in the flesh again, it does p**! you off a bit don’t it!!!!
Has been in the U.K. for about five years and just emerged from storage in North Norfolk. Considering its destination, is the Paul Allen connection a red herring or has he sold it?
And I’ve only seen one once, to the best of my knowledge, when the Lufthansa-owned example overflew Edinburgh a few years back….
Giving away your location there! I saw two Swiss ones flying over our house last year. The example at the Sinsheim Museum was painted red so it may have been stripped if it is the one bypassing Colchester. That wieesos’ is on the ball again, where does he come from?
Edit. the Sinsheim Museum would seem to have three Ju.52’s in stock and this does not include the roadrunner which came from Deggendorf.
Heading south on the A12 would indicate that it was shipped in via F`stow and would be en-route to an unknown distination at the present time.

Good point Tiger Moth, they are going to renovate it in the UK and fly it to the US!:D 😀 😀
