So the trust have finally got around to employing a proper painter to restore the surface finish on the port side of the Canberra - well they have let him prime it (the only problem is that primer is porous and will absorb the moisture) no idea why they did not let him apply the top coat. Not that it matters as that skin has a non-standard repair and will need to be replaced - I had written a scheme for that, I wonder if any of the management bothered to keep a copy?
I understand the dink on 558 is to the Red Steer radome nice bit of plastic repair putty and all will be ok....
Seems like the new crowd of volunteers have seen fit to remove Jacqui and Dee's signatures from the skin behind the dog - so long, thanks for all the fish (don't let the door slam you on the arse when you leave)

No more news on the new hangar (tarpaulin) I wonder when the trust will tell their supporters that the jets are going outside for the foreseeable future?
I see that the operations manager is back at work - so I think that is now 10 employees for a charitable trust that exists to inspire the next generation of engineers and designers (while not employing a single engineer)
The hangar looks a lot more empty than it was in February I wonder where all the stuff that had been donated over the years has gone (probably not all into one shipping container and a curtainside trailer.)
Maybe it's time for someone to contact the heritage lottery fund to see what they think of the return on their "investment" now?
And if any one from URARSE reads this - no, I do not post on your forum under any name.
