    Well a T5 over in the UK would be nice but the CAA would not allow this.

    and the Bucc at Scampton have the same text in the same box

    Well in fact the Bucc at Scampton has not got any text in the aforementioned box unless I missed anything.

    On the subject however I did hear if XX885 gets a permit to fly and its looking very likely it soon will then XW986 the Bucc that was with Delta Jets might be coming back to the UK.

    Hi

    The rumor about the Hunter team has been going around for a while now but nothing new has been heard lately.

    Still the main project for OFMC-HHA is XX885 their S2 bucc that will hopefully be flying again soon. Maybe the Hunter team will be their next big project.

    Last time we had a storm like that it blew a massive tree on top of one of our market stalls in the night.

    Thankfully no one got hurt but it ment we spent 2 days cleaning up so lost 2 days profit.

    Hi

    Dont forget XX885 up at Scampton. HHA are working hard to get it flying in the UK and have put it on the civil register as G-HHAA

    They did a ground run last month and that went very well 😉

    It is a right mess these days but their is still a chance of it flying again but something needs to be done soon or it will be to far gone.

    However their is a Gannet in Barkshire being rebuilt to fly but it will be a few years until its flying again.

    The one at Newark is also in good condition.

    The one in South Africa might end up at Thunder City on static display.

    I have not seen the one at Manchester does anyone have a photo ?

    Hi

    The one at Duxford is an absolute disgrace.

    However the best ones are the 2 that are still flying however the best one in the UK is the one at Coventry and it should be taxing soon.

    The 2 at Gatwick Air Museum are both in good condition and one of them can still be run up.
