Don't she look gorgeous! Even taxying, she puts a silly grin on my face. I wouldn't mind betting Duxford's September show is in her diary.

She has been on BBC TV Breakfast this morning and will depart about 14.00 if anyone is in the area!

BBC News 24 covered the departure live earlier . . . . . . and said they'd be covering the arrvial at Brunt later as well

Just read on ceefax that XH558 landed at Brunty? early because of an apparent landing gear door fault.

Great vid, but that really looked like a rapid rate of descent before she flared for landing. Anyone else think that ?
