Classic British Flight Sim

Hi folks - thought you might like this update...

For those that visit the AVP at Manchester, you may have got the idea not a lot is happening with our Trident, "ZuluKilo" .... well nothing could be further from the truth with the interior undergoing a massive refurb!

Took a couple of shots tonight of the restored cockpit - it looks stunning and just as it did during her operations from LHR. Neil Lomax has done an amazing job, pretty much single-handed on this.

Once she is complete and open, you should find an amazingly well preserved piece of aviation history and few touches that will make this exhibit rather special... :;):

So here is a taster of what you can expect...





Next year will be a big year for us ... watch this space :;):

Fabulous...Brings tears to my eyes A Happy, Prosperous and Productive New Year to everyone involved in this fine project :dance:

Thats amazing!

Well done to all involved on this project, I can't wait till she is all back together and open to see, I'd certainly pay to see the inside of it.

very nice, good to see something preserved so well, unlike some places.
I allways linger near ZK when Im at the viewing park while everybody else looks at the stuff going in & out

Looks ready for flight

Great job

Wll done and thank you to all concerned

Rgds,

Wonderful. I often chat to Neil when my work allows me to visit the AVP. He (and all the team!) have done an incredible job with this project. I only long for her to be put back together for everyone to see how beautiful she is.

Thanks for posting these shots.

Some more shots of the interior.

A wider shot of the entire cockpit


The interior has all new carpet throughout




All the over-seat lighting will be working shortly and all of the overhear warning signs are up and running.

The exhibition area is located in by the aft toilets

Very nice, looks allmost like its still in service

That is absolutely stunning, those shots from the flight deck and cabin are brilliant. Peter, out of interest how many times did you fly this particular one?
