B-52 status

[Bold]

B52 which broke sits on Mildenhall, and which is on Fairford he is also serviceable

The B-52 doesn't appear all that active?

[Proteus]

Soon to be given a Portable building number......

B-52 at Fairford is tech, hence it's Jersey cancellation.

Why and flew to sit?

I don't understand your post, can you explain what you mean please?

Eh?

If you'd read my post, you'd have seen that the B-52 currently at Fairford is tech and therefore, unable to fly.

It happens. Same thing probably happens to some people too, as they approach their 60th birthday.

This thread is like a riddle....Albion is an ancient name for Britain is all I can work out Good name for a future Exercise though!

Translation from "Boldese:" to plain English. Basically ssying that a B-52 flew from US TO Fairford and has just sat there.

It's supposed to do 1 or 2 fly by's at the Sanicole airshow this friday...

“The force is strong with this one.” Bold refers to the B-52 just sat there in Misty England (Albion) or maybe the online fictitious flight game, or maybe where his Mum was born. ( manufactured?)
Many aircraft fly to various destinations & become unserviceable, some never fly again if the problem is bad, some even fly to a faraway destination to practice the previous situations by being static at an airshow for a week!
Operating an aircraft is like owning a 5+ year old car, systems fail, glitches occur, it don't always start & keep running! Bad news is there ain't no Laybys in the sky!
I remain confident that when the Fairford B-52 is safe to fly...they will. I'm equally sure they didn't send that particular jet because it's a 'dog'. There's also clearly no evidence of it having the self-repairing capabilities of its namesake, 'Christine' the 1958 Plymouth Belvedere featured in the 1983 film.
Edit:- Goddam!...think I've become infected with Bullship too?

Ha, I think you are onto something there Supra My prediction is once the spare part is added and tested and works the B52 flying machine will fly once more and will not be left in Misty Albion forever. The shroud of the dark side has fallen.

In eagerness, we anticipate re-aviation of the octodonk....
