Hello Mate..

That link isn't happening for me and I get the same when trying flightglobal :roll: However, I thought the intention was only ever to get her to taxiing status :think: All I can say is that they're either very brave or very foolish to contemplate getting her into the air knowing as they must the shortage of funds available for such projects

No denying it'd be nice to see it flying though ;-)

The Shack has as much chance of flying as I have being called back to active service in Afganistan Until a year or so, there was a perfectly air worthy Shack that had to fly in the USA (thanks to the CAA banning her from the UK ) and was grounded when not enough stateside airshows wanted to pay to see her. This was because hardly anybody knew what a Shack was! The best chance this one has.....is as a stop gap stand in for the new Nimrod!!!

Yeek!! That link gives me the dreaded failure chord and wouldn't let me 'Back' out of it. Had to close the browser and reopen to get back here :o

Just tried the link - read the info & came back here with the back button in IE with no problems.

Given the economic climate its a brave buch to plan such a move, but I wish em well. It says that Air Ataltique no longer wished to retain the aircraft....I read that as "buy or it gets the chop".
