Believe the Cl-44 has been refused permission to fly by, not sure if by the caa or impounded by airport but it ain't going anywhere soon.

God only knows why the website is out of date but most employees would say it's indicative of often shoddy management that the airport has been cursed with for years.

CL44 Guppy Departure BOH Monday 15th Refused?
 

Hi, may I ask you where you got your info from and how reliable is your source, I am about to book a ticket to come over to BOH to watch the show so this would be a setback....Feel free to contact me by mail as well

swingtail, source is reliable, as of friday night the aircraft is still not allowed to move,honestly don't know any more than that.

cuz the aircraft has leaked oil and kerosene all over the BASCO ramp and no-one is offering to pay for damages. aircraft was never allowed to park on main bournemouth taxiways or apron as it was leaking... BASCO agreed to allow them the use of part of their ramp.

I understand that this aircraft was the subject of a Direction to prevent flying issued by the CAA back in 2003. While this Direction had not been revoked it quoted the previous registration number. I am told that the Direction has been reissued under the new registration number to clarify the situation.

How sure is it about the CL-44
 

How sure is it that the CL-44 has been grounded by the CAA.
I am a real CL44 fan and about to drive up to BOH from Holland, except if the whole show is cancellend FOR SURE....

What a shame would that be.

Bournemouth Sea Fury
 

Anyone know the schedule for the flying of this one at Bmth. Ive seen it flying, but would like to be around at the airfield at the time, to get a few pics of her. I beleive the guy takes her out once a month or so, usually a saturday. Just wondering if anyone knows any more info on timings etc?

Cheers :ok:

Whilst at Bournemouth on Saturday I heard there's a chance it could fly this weekend (31st). Naturally this all depends on weather/serviceability/pilot etc.

DC8 EGHH this pm
 

On the way past Bournemouth International about 5pmish I am sure I saw a DC8 presumably shooting an ILS on 08 and going around, can anyone confirm this otherwise I think I will have to spend more time in the Curlew if I am seeing things.
