"George" (she's a he, named after the owners grandson) arrived by road for the Festival of Speed and remained at the airfield until this weekend. He's not airworthy unfortunately and will never fly again. However, he has donated his left wing and several internal parts to keep XL577 flying and get XL600 into the air (hopefully later this year).
