VC10 FLEET BRIZE

The C1KS have clocked around 27.000hrs
The K3/K4S Ex civvie have around 60.000hrs.
We are not welcome at airshows this year as officially we are told the organisers want something more punchy[new] cluttering up thier pan. We know that Buffoon and his ilk would rather the public did not see a 21s centuary airforce flying museum relics.
That has put paid to a huge global fan base seeing a VC10 in its twilight years. Come to think of it that means the Tonkas, Trimotors, Nimrods, Hawks, Sea Kings, Alberts and Harriers, Pumas and Chinooks wont be attending then either. C17s eat your heart out.
