What's the story on the parked up J with no engines - rumoured never to fly again?

Guess I never explained things to you properly, Stoppers. You see, without any engines even a digitally-remastered Albert will never fly again! OK - with RATO perhaps. But not very far....

How are you enJoying life on Lockheed's Folly?

It is the new spec ops version with the whisper mode engines rumoured to operate like the sub in Hunt for Red October.


Maybe AMTDU now have an on-load & off-load trainer like the A model that was parked there in the early '80s.

Maybe they will turn the removed engines up side down and fix them to the P3s.
