From CAA Notice 1741: Footnote:

Without prejudice to the consideration of this application, the Department for Transport has decided to
grant British Airways a temporary waiver from 1 April 2006 to 14 April 2006. This waiver has been
granted in exceptional circumstances to meet the temporary needs of the airline until a decision on its
application under the transparent procedures has been made.


Looks like BA have till the 14th Apl to find another ship to shift their cargo: UK engineers have been out to FCO with a view to put this aircarft on the UK register - Not sure I like what you wrote there

Turrb, I don't think anybody's shed a tear on 921's departure. Let others deal with this Mx nightmare. Wonder who it's for though.....

I have heard that 921 was bought by a finance company to be flown by Ocean Airlines (Airways?).
