Where has it been written or said yesterday was permit to test day? Have I missed something?
What was said in last Fridays update was......
We still have a days work to complete the engines test and the remaining electrical test prior to the first post service test flight schedule.
Our Engineering Authority, Marshall Aerospace and OEM’s, BAE, and Rolls Royce, together with the CAA, are working hard to complete all the relevant paper work necessary to allow the application for a permit to test. Once the test flight is completed and rectification is clear, a Permit Maintenance release will be signed by MA and the CAA will then issue a permit to fly.
No-one said it was yesterday as far as I can see!
