Hi, this is a complete stab in the dark and pure speculation but could the increase in Crash Cat have anything to do with 2Excel's 'Excalibur' flight test bed (ex Titan Airways Boeing 757-200) that was operating out of Boscombe a few months back? Maybe it's making a return? I guess time will tell, cheers, B

You could be right.

757-200 requires Crash Cat 8.

No sign of it flying though.

Thanks
Alan
