This is too good to be true... Although we all knew it would probably happen :clap: ...

Hell this is going to be impressive!!

Hopefully XM607 could be towed round to join the party? Now that would be a sight (albeit with tears in the eyes!)

Not much chance of XM607 moving, I was told its staying were it is last time it was repainted.

Not able to move unfortunately. However the event is to be held quite close to '607.

One formation pass of all 3 airframes once departed would have had me there in an instant, does sound like a good photo op though
