What's going on at Bruntingthorpe

I can read what Tim and others are saying, on the other thread re Vulcan; in particular Tim says
I know it's easy to say "ah hah, here we go again - next month they'll be after even more cash, blah blah" but as far as I can determine, this doesn't appear to be the case. The situation appears to be that once this hurdle is cleared, the aircraft can reach the test flight stage.
With great respect to Tim and the support he is giving this project, "as far as I can determine" and "appears to be" aren't the sort of basis on which corporate sponsors are going to chip in or get involved, I don't think it is going to enlist new individual supporters nor will it encourage further donations from those who have already given. These phrases seem typical of the lack of clarity and information that this project has suffered recently.
