Presuming the 'xenophobic' comment has been deleted as I literally cannot see anything that even approaches this. Genuinely confused... Hi mig_eater. Nothing has been deleted so thank you for your comment. I made no such comment other than saying why should India deserve to receive this aircraft. B...

If it was for sale and now being offered as a flyer "free of charge" to India then, although controversial, why is it not being offered to VTTST Seriously! Do you think it would be in good hands with that lot? You cut my quote short to suit your comment. I stated "any other UK operat...

Couple of questions:- Is this the aircraft not considered by VTTST? Was it for sale at the time VTTST purchased WK163 (I seem to remember it was)? If it was for sale and now being offered as a flyer "free of charge" to India then, although controversial, why is it not being offered to VTTS...

VTTS are selling these with no opportunity to view them unless you are willing to stump up £100.00 for an engine ground run. Take for example the gift of the name on the aircraft. Where was it implied in the sale you could wander up and look at it as and when you please? They aren't actually breaki...

Just checked - accounts due 31 July 2018!!

Thanks Richard - good points. I do fully understand what you are saying - likely run around in circles getting more and more frustrated without achieving anything when playing the long game would be easier. Will do a little reading before possibly acting. Must admit they do seem untouchable. It's no...

Think carefully about this. Have you a legitimate concern with the charity not meeting its stated objectives; or are you just dissatisfied with the charity not doing what you think it should? One will get you an answer from the Charities Commission, the other will just get a letter generated to VTS...

How many times does the "Complain to the Charity Commission" argument have to be made, though......it's almost as popular as the "Should have gone to Brunty" argument. Can't recall if it was on here or the VTTS forum, but to date I think there's only been one or two posters who'...

Thanks Dan - if no rules have actually been broken then fair enough, it will be difficult to exert any pressure. Well done Bernard. Not hiding behind a name as has been suggested. For my part and for what it is worth my name is Tim Blackburn and I live in Cardiff. So come on Reds Rolling - who are y...

So how do we flush them out? Or call their bluff? Who do we email or contact (charities commission)? On what grounds could we report them and suggest investigation is needed. If basic grounds can be established on here to lodge a complaint, and enough of us do this at the same time, then maybe, just...

Lets just say the VTTS don't have a very good name within this hobby with people from Doncaster. I'm from Doncaster. They seem alright to me. It does explain all those people chasing me with pitchforks though.... So you can find time for a smart-arse reply, but not the time to find answers to the q...

Anyone know if 338.225 is being used for UHF tower?

Same here. Unless you are an Apple user you can't have it.

Beside these un-answered questions: 1. As of this morning, how many people are employed by VTST (or whatever they're called now)? 2. How many of those are full-time, part-time, freelance or on retainers? 3. How many contractors and consultants are currently being used by VTST? 4. If there are contr...

Love visiting this site for spelling lessons!

Eagerly awaiting today's newsletter! How many weeks since we were promised THE news? It has to be this week, surely?

The F-35s are really stealthy!!

Me too. Always have a quick check on here in the morning when there is an exercise taking place at Fairford.

As XH558 and spares were bought for the nation please can you tell me when I will be able to visit the "peoples aircraft"? Oh wait a minute - I can't because it is unavailable for viewing - unless of course I stump up £100 to hear the engines run.

I wonder if part of the reason that we get so many transport/tanker/surveillance type aircraft and not so many fighter types can be partially explained by the last line of the update; The Air Arm Chiefs from 50 nations have now confirmed their attendance at the 2018 Air Tattoo. This time last year ...

I think RIAT isn't necessarily the place to be seen, but the place to 'meet'. This will likely continue, especially if the organisers make this a feature of the show, albeit one not available to the general public. The evolution (decline) of the Farnborough trade show has almost certainly had an ef...

Re: Radom Update To be fair is there really much more distance between Pakistan - Radom and Pakistan - Fairford? Just playing Devil's Advocate but does anyone think RIAT are losing their position as the best/biggest military airshow? I sincerely hope this is not the case. The unofficial stance in th...
