I don’t actually have a link for it- just seen a scan of the paper itself. Anything you can do to keep things clear for everyone would be much appreciated though, thanks.
Hi Everyone, damage limitation time here- some of you may have seen an article in the Daily Mirror today proclaiming that Bluebird has been finished and is being launched on Coniston this week.
THIS IS NOT TRUE.
What is being launched this week is a semi-REPLICA. This is NOT endorsed by the Campbell family, and has no connections with us. The real Bluebird K7 remains deep in painstaking rebuild.
Please spread the word!

Nice pics, and I do believe that’s our Bill there in one of them, too!
Nothing there that we can’t fix…

Well, our Bill from The Bluebird Project did!

Very interesting to hear about the crash of ‘our’ Barra, thanks for that; there’s already a thread running about the announcement of it’s rebuild- bit of merging for a mod to do maybe?
The amazing Bruce to the rescue once again! Bless your heart- PM inbound.
That would be fantastic, thank you!
Interesting! Next question then, does anyone have a blue light (or just the lens will do) that they’d like to donate to The Bluebird Project please?
One of these lights in K7’s panel clearly isn’t red, but it’s hard to make out what it is- Campbell hated anything green, so maybe he had a blue light instead?
Wow, doesn’t the Lanc look different with some shrouds on? Fab! Are they a pain for you guys inspecting the exhaust stubs now though Fluffy?
When only seven of them flew over the Great North Run yesterday, I feared that they were a further aircraft down due to a tech reason; I’m glad to hear that they are getting some ‘new’ Hawks.
