Belfast Hector to fly again?
Two pieces of info on the last flyable (?) Belfast; we knew as GHLFT.
"The aircraft is to return to the skies. It has a contract for freight supply and is now under full-time restoration to return to flight.
Now on the US register as N1819S the former RAF XR365 or Hector as it was named, which hasn't flown since 2009 has had its 6 internal generators overhauled and the flight deck close to being finished. Still some work to do but overall the airframe is in excellent condition".
"Appears to belong to the Bank of Utah now. BoU claims to hold over 2,000 FAA registered air frames.
The N1819S is interesting, since that airframe’s serial number is SH. 1819".
