Great stuff, I assume you have the tail and engines stashed somewhere safe?

Just glad we can`t post audio files Fruity, what with all the swearing & moaning you were doing on Sunday about the belly tanks not coming off !
Nice photos too, must remember to take my camera next time I`m working on ZF581 & take some snaps.
Regards,
Allan.

I wish someone would donate one to me!
Great to see another in the hands of someone who is going to treat her with the respect shes due.
Are there any plans of a paint job? Even though shes a Saudi, it would be great to see her in 11 sqn colours with BW tail coding
All the best to all involved and look forward to an update
Dave

The paint scheme has yet to be decided, but as soon as I am allowed to divulge information I will let all know
