Dunno about a KC-30, but ive heard a Voyager is PENCILED in for a flypast on the friday.

[Hurn]

They're the same thing mate. Would be nice to see one do a flypast though.

[seven]

Not quite, KC-30 has a boom, Voyager is two or three point HDU's. Also the Kc-30's actually work

[Hurn]

Ah I see.

Presume if one flies it'll still be in primer though?

[seven]

Doubt it, it will most likely be ZZ330 rather than one of the Cobham examples, as these are apparantly some way off being ready, hence the next 4 being modified by EADS.

[Hurn]

Ah I see (again)

It was the earlier talk of them being sat here in hangars that made me think it would be one of the Cobham examples.

[seven]

Thats what i thought, though a friend asked them and they knew nothing about it! Then of course came the timescale update which totally wrote those two off!

Here's for a heatwave this time.. those floods were most 'interesting'

[Hurn]

Think a Voyager flypast might now seem a bit of a kick in the teeth considering the current Cobham situation.

[seven]

Sadly your not wrong!

[Hurn]

That ruins my plans! Doh!

Not any more it doesn't.

[seven]

Now now, it hasnt gone tech yet

[Hurn]

I'm sure it'll turn up this year.

[lynnallen]

[veesup]

i picked up my airshow programme today, no surprises to report!

[Hurn]

It'll be a surprise if the Sea Vixen flies that's for sure.

[veesup]

It'll be a surprise if the Sea Vixen flies that's for sure.

whats the latest with the sea vixen then?

[Hurn]

Don't think they've got a permit to fly right now. The last one expired in June.
