Gaz is a Brunty bloke which means he's used to days filled with lots of aeroplanes running around,apart from 900 that is, she throws a strop every open day. Anyway, he's probably a little underwhelmed with only 1 taxi run :D

I understand 655 had a few electrical gremlins today. It is to be expected as she is nearly 50 years old and stands out in the weather.

She did do 2 runs the second wasn't a 'fast' taxi but did get her nose up for a short period of time so all in all no-one was short changed just a small change to the timings.

Well done to the ground crew for getting her fixed and to the air crew you must try harder not to break her!!!! :))

The flying model of 558 good to watch and I even won a raffle prize!!!! :-o

I was there working the VTTS stall - flag in the 'chute bay was a nice touch!

Remembered to renew my MaPS membership too - no queue whatsoever during the slow run... ;)
