Classic British Flight Sim

After much planning and a kit made up, plus special tools etc, the repairs are underway with the VH-OQA, the Airbus A.380 that suffered an engine blow out

Cost is reportedly $130,000,000

But with a non discounted list price of $300,000,000 it's far from a write off.

The cost of replacement parts and the logistics of repair are mind-boggling.

Not as if you could get your family and a few neighbour over to hold the wing in position while you bolt it on.

You need a ladder to change the under fuse beacon

Hope there's no-one from HMRC viewing Dave.(I mean viewing-Dave,not viewing Dave which would be silly wouldn't it?) Why would they view Dave?.Oh do shut up. EricT

Fear not Eric.. HMRC are fully aware of what I'm worth. They were polite enough not to laugh!

Why would they view Dave?

Maybe they missed Top Gear?
