Yes I do. The aeroplane sat there for weeks being repaired....
Weeks? It was repaired over the winter months in Base Hangar and as the hangar doors had to be open for the Tristar to fit, it switched the heating off.

Bloody freezing it was.

As for Boscombe Down, well all new aircraft have to go there don't they?

Whether they need to or not because that's the way it's always been....
Saintsman, we were refering to the Hyd one which was repaired on the apron with a poly sheeting tent thrown over the wings and ground heaters blowing into it.
