Nice clips, abit sad for you I suppose, but onward and upward eh ;)

Good luck with the new posting ;)

You never know, if Brunty gets any 10's and Dave ear marks a runner, gets spares and all kit to keep one running, you could offer your services, dont expect any home comforts, outside preservation is the ultimate nightmare ;)

Get a good group of folks around you that will stick their hands in their pockets and muck in and you could have the makings of the 'VC10 preservation group' :)


Good luck mate :)

In a fleet of how many?

That is one super reliable goesomebus!


4 engine changes in a week? - Yes

In a fleet of how many? - 16

That is one super reliable goesomebus! - 1 unplanned ECU change and the others were LIFE EX.
