Tech Rep, there was no slur intended on the Air Atlantique side of things but until they get the CAA sign-off it won't fly. It does seem inconsistent when we have an airworthy Lancaster (BBMF flight) and a B-17, privately run. Both these airframes are broadly the same technology as the Shack. Perhaps when the Vulcan flies there will be a realisation that the private sector can manage these things.
