Great pics 1103, will she keep her engines and what is the long term plan?

Thanks.
All I can say at the moment is what Allan Winn of the museum said in a Flight article - "We intend keep it as a live exhibit at Dunsfold, and are currently negotiating on keeping it as a fully taxiable machine"

Sounds very promising, thank you Paul!
I shall be watching Top Gear even more closely next year to catch glimpses of ZA150

Beautiful, I do hope you get to keep and play with the engines.

Re: ZA150 - Dunsfold 13 Nov
We are keeping the engines and getting ever closer to bringing 150 back to life. just a couple of minor points, we need a ground power unit along with an air start. The APU is an intermittent starter therefore cannot be relied upon. Any suggestion for obtaining these units will be gratefully received.
We will need to move her to the other end of the airfield to near the 747, and it would be great to taxi rather than tow.

PLEASE let us know if an engine run or taxi is gong to happen, I'm sure there would be a lot of interest.Cap10 wrote: We will need to move her to the other end of the airfield to near the 747, and it would be great to taxi rather than tow.
