Hi,

Wednesday 30th August.
Re: Hawk T2 problem in September 2017?
Thanks, that's what I saw. I'm told the entire T2 fleet is grounded but there has been no official explanation as to why.
Re: Hawk T2 problem in September 2017?
Not sure they are grounded, Thursday they didn't fly due to potential Thunderstorms in the area and due back up on Tuesday.

Noticed a couple up around 8.30 on the 30th then as Reptile says all down after that due to weather.

T2's are certainly not 'grounded', that would mean a withdrawal of their flight certification I believe.

Many suggestions over on PPrune about why the Hawk T2s "haven't left the ground" recently!
