I was there last year but I doubt anything has changed. There was talk of flying it again for airshows etc but nothing has happened since.

Now that would be a worthwhile thing to see. Miss the days of the 707 flying around!
BTW theres been a bit of activity around the retired 707s at Richmond lately, are these still going to Omega or would they just be removing the bits that are salvageable? |

Not sure if there are US regos on them yet but it seems as though they have taken off the blue plastic or coverings that were over the engines on at least the closest one to the fire station anyway.
Maybe they are in the final stages of getting them off to the US. Its been nearly a year hasn't it since they were retired? I'm really hoping that someone is going to be able to tell when they are heading off so that i can get out there and see it leave, will be the last time we see a 707 apart from John Travolta? Anyone with some insider info they're not telling us about? ![]() |
