You are very badly informed saracen. Dera/qinetiq wasnt even invented 10 years ago when the comet was taken from here it was the mods decision. She had about 8000 hrs when she left and was perfectly airworthy. Now she is too rotten to do anything struggling to even taxi i heard. I would rather see what ever is left of our aviation heritage airborne in the states or south africa than rotting on the ground turning to scrap here ! I spent many happy hours on Canopus she was built to fly
