    Hope it didn’t start out as a restoration to airworthy

    I find it hard to believe that someone from MAPS didn’t notice what he was doing

    I don’t understand why these ‘restoration’ with hardly any original material are easier to register than an (almost) exact replica built from original drawings (or CAD if some are missing) like the Flug Werk ‘190’s (and i know that this question will make me sound like a complete imbecile to those in the know!)

    Some worrying news about an EC-121T 52-3417 in Aircraft Illustrated -it was flown into a University in Montana (big campus!) from DM in 1981 but is now ‘surplus to requirements; -they are keen to see it go to a good home, but they want it moved asap

    I always thought that ‘Top Gun’ was a U.S. Navy course-this isn’t looking promising!

    Beverley Shenstone designed the wing -and seem to remember he worked for Heinkel previously

    I spoke to an Engineer at Cosford on Friday, and he told me the folks at MAPS didn’t have enough room to put the wings on, and when they tried it after delivery at Hendon it was found that they needed to be ‘tweeked’ a bit to get them to fit

    Its sad for me because i doubt if they will stay at Duxford -and i can’t afford trips abroad to see them, and i also REALLY want to that ‘190 fly!

    I didn’t realise Gary Numan owned until that recently-who owns it now?-and does Numan still fly anything?
