ZG750 ,Pinky

[LANCER]

Hi all, anyone know if Pinky is active at the moment ?
Wondering if it's worth a trip from Lancashire tmoz!
Many thanks in advance

[Motley]

Was up flying last week, so still being used, just down to if it is serviceable if it flys

[markranger]

Will be pot luck with any of the GR4Ts,
Have you looked at the weather tomorrow? Forecast to be dull and an easterly wind so Runway 06 in use,,Not the best combo for Marham.

Don't quite know which weather forecast that was , BBC showing west southwest 5 to 9 nots
Sunny spells from 1100 to 1700 so r/w 24 should be in use.

[LANCER]

Took a chance in The Loop , no joy !!!
Cheers again anyway

Quick update on "pinky" or ZG750. We are currently carrying out some fairly in depth overhaul of her and as a result she probably won't be flying for a few weeks. So I wouldn't make any special trip to Marham hoping to see it. I'll post an update on here when she is out and about again.

Many thanks Integrale1, a very helpful piece of information and much appreciated!

Thanks for the info, was thinking about coming up in the next couple of weeks but won't bother anymore, thanks again!

[Integrale1]

As I mentioned in the tornado gr4 thread this a/c has been scheduled to be scrapped in August, hopefully we will be taking her to a few shows before her final flight. It is scheduled to go to leeming with our 31sqn 100th anniversary trainer. I'll update on here of any shows we end up taking her to .

[LANCER]

Many thanks to all who have contributed to this thread
It has been of great assistance, cheers

Pinky appears to be active again...just seen departing Marham

[Integrale1]

ZG750 is indeed active once again. It had its first flight today since we finished its overhaul.
The plan is to try and keep it active as possible before it is scrapped in July .
Expect at least a couple of flights a week from her until July.

Good news

Hope to see her in Larissa (RAF Tornados are invited )
I know, most probably only wishfull thinking, but ... let's dream a little bit ...

Any news on Pinkies demise? July is fast approaching !

And not noted flying in June at all, according the fleet status list page 1. Maybe one last flurry next week?
Will she last long enough for RIAT? I was lucky & caught her in Jersey, but there are still a lot of folks that haven't seen her!
