96 back in air

They have been released, and the local plots are pleased, as they say there was nothing ever wrong with them...That a 5kg club hammer could not fix.

Not certain if Mr P's aircraft is doing the EU/London run, I wouladassume so....Saw it in Moscow, being towed to the VVVVVIIIPPPP stand, but did not see it depart.... bumz

I dont know if its related to all this or a new movement but there is an IL62 on the exec ramp at LHR right now. Its got a blue/green and yellow flag on the tail. Loads of security hanging around southern permiter and a helicopter constantly hovering overhead.
