ZK303 in for upgrade?

Greetings all

Haven't seen 303 flying for a while and wondered if it was in for upgrade

Cheers!

ZK303 is one of the most up to date Typhoons and used for testing/trails work, flown three times in January 2025.

Hi John, suggest you keep an eye on Chris's monthly movements post, all relevant flights are listed there.

I certainly managed to catch it last year on a few occasions. I've not been down so far this year, too much DIY to do at home sadly.

Thanks, Mike

Yeah, I usually check in to see what Chris posts. I hadn't seen it active for a while, which prompted my question.

Of course, a day or two after I asked.... it flew! DOH!

Cheers

To be fair John yes you are right, when you posted the question on 12/01/25, it hadn't flown since 27/09/24.

Haha, sods law strikes again. I subscribed to the Warton page so I don't miss any alerts.
