Forget, I'm not sure of your purpose in posting the statement from Dr Fleming, but if it's to show the 'true situation', then for goodness' sake, get real. Look at the webcams on the official site - does the plane look to you like it's going to be ready for a test flight 'by the end of May' ???
Since when does any aircraft - let alone one that hasn't flown in 14 years, is ex-military, and is 50-year-old technology, take part in airshows within weeks of a test flight????
Like Racing Snake, I am now wondering exactly what is in the heads of the people at Bruntingthorpe. Just how much money has been donated so far???
