Unbelievable!!

No correct that - entirely believable from this bunch.

From the announcements made at Waddington (3?) over the course of the saturday it was categorically not TVOC's fault and they were not to blame for the oversight.

Apart from the oversight of MANAGING the project effectively of course.

Or the oversight to perhaps let the punters who were planning to travel to Waddington to make up their own minds whether it was worth taking the risk that XH558 might not fly by publicising this on the Friday. No doubt the crowd numbers would have been down but they would have earned some respect form the public (particularly me) if they had been honest, rather than the disdain felt now.

I still have yet to see XH558 in the air. I have now given up chasing her around the country only to be disappointed. If I ever see her flying it will be because she happens to be somewhere that I am visiting rather than me making any efforts to go and see her.
