XL426 has made her maiden unaided taxi test at southend airport,very noisy,felt the earth move,great to see this old lady on the move again.maybe we will see her fly once again
Only if they decide to do a 'Brunty Victor'.

Why won't she fly ?
Lack of money, lack of spares, lack of zero timed engines.

Of course if you've got enough of the first bit then anything is possible, but the reality is it'll never (legally) fly again. Glad to hear it's back taxiing though.
