Well, Shannon volmet, there is hardly enough activity to warrant two threads, so why not a combined thread for two long-time grounded aircraft ,which, thanks to the diligence of their supporters and owners, could be on the brink of becoming airborne for all we know.
The thing is we don't know, and only have the grapevine here to go on. A hint of progress on either would be of immense interest to this venerable old freighter fart, and probably quite a few other old freighter farts, as well as all others who scan here.
We can but vicariously prod and ask, and more often than not, "answer came there none".
Which is a great pity really.
