Post by AJW »

Has anyone heard/seen anything more from the 10's at Bruntingthorpe at the minute? Is there anything left there now?

They have a fair bit of work on their hands then!
How long has that Comet been sitting there?

That's the Comet that was at Boscombe for a long time, it would be shame to see that scrapped.

The Comet (XS235) and Nimrod (XV226) will not be scrapped. Both are kept in running condition and will be preserved.

Let's hope that a VC10 will also be kept in running condition

As far as I'm aware, that's the plan :)
