The last time I saw a Shack fly, it was taking off over my head whilst I was jogging down the beach at Lossie in 86.
Sadly, I think the odds of either happening again are about the same.
Changing tack somewhat, I was involved with the late Wallace Cubitt in the 90’s whilst he had the Hunter T7 XL595 at Coltishall, in which he later died. I’m sure I recall he had some kind of connection with the Paphos aircraft, and he was multi piston rated. Was there ever a plan to bring one back ?
I believe both are entirely Feasible :diablo:
I met professional people in the aviation business who were ADAMANT that the Vulcan would never fly….
Im pretty sure there may have been some plan like that at one point but dont quote me on it. I had heard that some mad ****** would have bought one of them back to the uk after it had been stood for 7/8 years with just a couple of engine runs… Braver than I 😮
