What a bloody smashing day!
Well done for all involved, I daresay that there will be something on ITV news about it tonight!
Some pics for you all, ive got some video, but my phone is crap for taking video, so its not great 🙁


It was also excellent to meet a few forumites, always a pleasure to put faces to names
Cheers all and well done to All those who made today happen!

I WANT!
Last shameless plug from me
Nimrod is due late morning, should be some engine runs and hopefully some flying, the shack will be open to visitors.
Please come and support this collection and its future! It will be an excellent day for all!
Also as pagen says, the Midland air museum is open up the road too, so well worth look!
hope to see you there!
Best regards
Ben
If need be mate I can come pick you up? You are more than welcome to come play with 963 with us! Ill take you on saturdays if you like? 🙂
Got any links mate, id like to look 🙂
Somewhere we do! I find the list rather intimidating! 😀
Chippie, let me send some emails to our parts blokes and find out if they are actually shack. Would they possibly be available for purchase?
If the shackleton has pneumatic/hydraulically driven fuelc0cks then the vulcan wont have chan driven ones
What about the Lincoln at Cosford?
That advert made me laugh so hard 😀
I suspect she’s long been picked clean of useable bits already, but what about Sugar in Hendon?
I wouldnt have thought so given the now intention to get JJ flying in the next 24 months!
Ill donate £5 to prevent this
Come on chaps!

It looks to be quite a day up at coventry on tuesday, We can guarantee that WR963 will be open for visitors to do a walkthrough for a small donation 😀 (its all going to a good cause!)
It is hoped that WR963 will be parked next to the Nimrod XV232 for a truly unique photo oppertunity for anyone that attends
Please come and see us, there will be many aircraft from classic flight on display as well as WR963 and XV232
