Not again, last fridays flight cancelled,told aircraft was flight ready, just wasted two days of perfect weather and the weather next week looks iffy.
This thing is never going to make any airshows if it can only fly on clear sunny days.We all know we dont get many of these.
I hope they are not using poor weather for an excuse because they have ran out of money again!!.

Last weeks flight was indeed cancelled because of weather as is todays, it is not a case of just move everything forward a day or two, it is down to the logistics of getting all the essential personal together - remember some work on other projects so not available at the drop of a hat, you have to co-ordinate emergency services, & the runway needs to be available - the first choice for flight was Wednesday but dispite checking last week that the runway was available TVOC were told on Tuesday it wasn't

you may find it hard to believe but not everything that doesn't go according to plan is tvoc's fault
