VC-10 departures this week

[Goldstar31]

Hi all

Due to depart to Bruntingthorpe this week are on Monday ZA149 then on Wednesday ZD241....cue the 'sad day' comments. Yes you're entitled to those comments but to me it's an aircraft that is over 60 years old and well past it's retirement date....my personal opinion

Cheers

I believe it will be a Tristar and VC10 will drag them back

Bruntingthorpe NOTAM'ed active again Wed 1100-1200 for ''large jet aircraft delivery''
