Angel Back in the air.

Well i must congratulate Air Atlantique and there team not only to get G-APSA back into the air but to see her flying is another achivement.
She was a great sight at the jersey International Air display we had some problem with her an she almost missed her slot in the show as the GPU connections were not connecting untill the third unit worked and she fired up and taxied out a bit quick and made her slot all be it a minute or two late but what a sight.
It brought tears in some of our eyes as many years ago jersey would see the DC6.s of Delta Air transport on regular day trip from Beligum.
On one occasion G-SIXC came to Jersey to pick up the old ILS of Jerseys and take it to Coventry where I think it is still there?
As the old saying goes bring back the DAK well it never disappeared so can they keep one of these giants of the 50s still going we can only hope so good luck with the KLM filming and keeping her where she belongs in the air.
