Maybe that means she will end up stateside.

Out of interest (and no Im not planning on buying one) what does a flying Dak cost to purchase?

I dont ever recall seeing one up for offer. Although saying that Ive never gone looking for one.

Certainly has to be in contention for winner of the most atractive looking Dak award.

Always thought she looked lovely. Be nice to see her back flying in the UK.

Anyone fancy a Cub project?

Proof that Midland Air Museums Vulcan XL360 was capable of carrying Blue Steel

Immediately behind the bomb bay doors there is a panel, approx 18″ x 8″ which was part of the BS mod… apparently.

Correct, although saying that Ive never mentioned the afore mentioned panel :p

Merkle with all due respect I wouldnt bother wasting your time re the Whirlwind at Midland Air Museum.

It was discussed at board level recently as to the various options open and what course of action to take.

As it has a local connection (it was used by Alvis at Coventry Airport as a test bed) the decision was made not to dispose of it and that it should remain in store (albeit outside) for future restoration.

Another Auster project anyone ?

Didnt stay on ebay long. Im guessing someone took up the buy now option.
