We have got it! new arrangements with the selling party made that possible, we hope to be airborne within a month after all the paperwork has be done!

Gefeliciteerd! If you can’t reach the UK, then certainly the Dutch aviation scene will still be graced by this rare vintage bird!

Taken from Pprune.org , posted tonight… 🙁

Despite the best efforts of several groups/individuals, it is increasingly likely that the Guppy WILL be scrapped within a short time-frame.
The CL44 Association’s August Newsletter carries little news of the aircraft simply because there is no ACTUAL news-simply the slow, onward cruise to the inevitable.
One European Group DID indeed lodge interest but failed to provide hard evidence of its intentions (these will be included in the Re-Union ‘Live News’ on Saturday 1st November at the RAF Club. The Bournemouth Aviation Museum’s move to its new site looks likely not to happen within the near future and with no other viable proposals-it looks like the end for the old Skymonster.
Thanks to the MD of Heavylift and to his UK Rep for all the help during the past few months-alas, we note that the Belfast has already begun its last trip from SOuthend to the Skip. The good news is that a film unit from Short Bros together with the Heavylift Rep and a CL44 Association member met up to make a ‘short’ documentary on the aircraft.
One RR Tyne prop blade is for sale at BOH-buyer collects.

There aren’t that many spammers around with specific aviation names. I think indeed some accounts have been hacked… 😡

From Pprune.org …

“He mentioned that it was not so much a question of car parking being a problem in canx sunday,but more of a problem with the events “insurers”,(or those involved in such matters),who thought the risk to spectators from “slip and fall” related accidents too risky!!
As for monday departures,he has said that several crews he has spoken to today,are now requesting sunday departures for home,so there may not be too much to see on monday if they get the go ahead.”
