B-Word,

my 'source' had no reason to lie, but may have been including secondhand Harrier 2+ available in a deal, just as the UK flogs Typhoons etc, though they're mainly from the production line.

It's said here and there that Harrier production has shut down, but I would bet anything that it could be started up again PDQ - and yes I am an engineer who knows what's involved, trained & qualified in that before becoming aerial photographer.

Before you say it, agreed not a qualified pilot, though I have taken part in a lot of flight trials & hands-on etc.

Have to go, bye. DZ
