From sources close to the project the intial cancellation was possibly down to the concerns in the wing design and the lifing issue , no evidence ever came to this but this was just word of mouth on the shop floor with people in the know at Woodford.
The other one was a meeting between the PM and head of BAE the Friday before the decision , again just words mentioned at the time but so many more, its irrelevant now

Its gone
