XL319 - Sunderland. Reaches for the Sky (ooops)

Postby Checkflaps » Sat Jan 09, 2010 9:32 pm

Hi all. Being discussed over on Flypast.

Looks like the snow shifted the CoG to the rear, a bit like the defueled VC10 at Brize.

Hope the damage is slight.

Doh. But I did think it would have had its own topic.
