Any news on the Gannets ???

[LOST-O2]

Any updates on the 2 Gannets returning to thr UK sky

The ex-US T5 or the ex-Chatham AEW3 ????

[Dr Illitout]

My spy at Chester tells me the T5 is stuck in Canada with engine problems. A spare has been located but a bit of "Wheeling and dealing" has to be done to get it!. Don't know exactly what this consists of but my guess is it's to do with MONEY!!!!.
Hope it all gets resolved as it would be fantastic to see one in the air again.

Got a feeling the ex-Chatham machine has now been moved to North Weald, where Kennet are working on her.

[AerBabe]

Your feeling is correct. No time estimate on the work being completed though.

Anything further recently. Did the T5 make it across the pond.

[Dr Illitout]

My spy at Chester tells me that the "new" engine failed a boroscope check. No other news than that I'm affraid
