Hi all,

With thanks to the WAVE group on Facebook, a rumoured Israeli 707 is due in tomorrow morning around 9am and staying for a few hours.

Unsure, just repeating what was posted.

There was some talk last week of something arriving Friday but it was all hush hush and only those 'in the know' commented.

Time will tell.

Such a shame that this hobby has so many that like to hold back info for themselves or a special group of people.

At least there are still some people out there willing to share info.

They cant help it if the aircraft fails to turn up for what ever reason. They are only passing on info. Would you prefer they said nothing? The info they pass on is normally accurate but just like anything in this game, untill wheels are on the ground nothing is guaranteed.

don't really mind if nothing is said as is much the case only for the chosen few, been in this game a long time and worn the tea shirt.

Then you should know then nothing is guaranteed. You cant blame the wave facebook page because a plane didnt turn up, you have no idea what the reason was. I have always found the page to be helpfull. It may not turn up the day they say but it always seems to turn up.

I didn't proportion any blame on the wave facebook page and have nothing to do with it or twitter etc etc and no intension of doing so.

Well saying it isn't that reliable sounds like apportioning some blame to me :)
