i very much doubt if woodford was in with a chance for this work anyway, firstly the hangars would not take a 737 let alone a 767, and secondly woodfords track record with this type of work is hardly encouraging ,you only have to look at their record on nimrod conversion projects and they were built there! the thought of them let loose on a "strange"boeing wide body is scary, i would have thought if bae had secured this work filton would be a far more suitable location
