Re: Reds Hawks at Valley

XX322 flew it's post maintenance test flight yesterday morning followed by XX239 in the afternoon.
XX322 was turned around and flown to Waddington later. XX239 will follow shortly. A great effort from the guys in AMRO.

Re: AMRO Update 1 March 2023

321 is looking a bit sorry for itself at the moment, a wingless fuselage partially painted in Reds colours. It should emerge again once the Black to Red programme gets underway, hopefully later this year.
