I flew into Prestwick last week and it was still sat outside the Polar Air Hangar. I was talking to one of Heavylifts former senior engineers at the Coventry airshow and he was perplexed why anybody bought the aircraft after they went bust. He reckoned the aircraft only had about a years life left in it even robbing bits of G-BEPS. Still a great shame to see it sitting abandoned. Hopefully the new owers might donate it to a museum such as Duxford if the issues to return it to service cannot be resolved.
