Yes I understand Sunshine Express might be short one Metro 23. Ouch. Also understand it was the same mob that blew it up were the ones who removed the bung from the fuel tank in the last one and forgot to put the fuel back in.
Must be a week for Metro's, also told that VH had VEH (MIII-H)written off this week after a heavier than usual landing attempt that scored a 10.
Last but not least Airtex's IAW (MIII) is stuck somewhere in the Pacific without a donk after it being struck from a great height. Der Fuehrer will not be pleased. "aghh ....... your sending me broke".
Then again, the SunnyEx M23 might have blown up because of the "dodgy" fuel probes that have been blowing Metros out of the sky for years.....
