Lindy – that is probably the only thing I can find on the EASA site! CAA is not so bad, you just need to understand the departments and their responsibilities before you can navigate the site 😉
I guess the above regs may now help Herr E Pleine and his German collection.
Here’s a list of EASA Members

Assuming UTC+2hrs 😉
The CAA’s function is changing with EASA so by 2025 who knows?
As has been said, aircraft evolve with ever increasing degrees of complexity. I would assume that if say a Tornado or F15 was operated, it would be part of a publicly funded memorial flight.
I envisage that by 2025 because we have a vibrant cottage industry restoring and maintaining WW2 warbirds like the Spitfire and Mustang, which likely doesn’t need as much manpower or money, that these types will still be flying whilst many successors will be consigned to museums and the scraphead.
The reception at their Bishop’s Cleeve main site used to have such material displayed only a few years ago.
Call the main number and ask. If there is doubt, they should have PR dept.
Well the registered owner appears to live around the corner from my girlfriend. Perhaps I ought to bang on his door when I go over there later today? 😀
Interesting, didn’t know about this raid. Thanks RL. 🙂
Jupiter – you just resurrected an 18-month old thread… 🙂
Good luck but the original posters might still be around to answer.
Thank you Moggy. That gave me a very interesting 10 minutes this morning considering life within bomber command.
Well G-WREN has served with the Northants School of Flying for some years in new clothing (all red) first at Sywell then Sibson when the school moved. They were trying to sell it recently.
and what is this gentleman’s story and ultimate fate?
Tail number looks like “46” (or “4G”) to me
Eeek!
What’s the tank restoration museum on the Isle of Wight and is it worth a visit? I have seen a few of those programs where it features on UKTV History.
They did a cut and shut on a Sherman. The strip, clean and rebuild on the -975 engine looked very impressive.
A Google reveals…

Rick Piper’s website doesn’t seem to have been updates for ages and I wouldn’t be certain that I’m getting the latest files from it.
Looks like you had nicely painted, decent Tommies to work with, Darren!
