It hasn't flown yet. I daresay that if & when it does there will be plenty of news coverage.
Sadly even Sky News Multiscreen is completely dominated by Mrs B...
Hopefully though as doug says, once it goes up, some screen will be given to it for full coverage. BBC is on the hospital bug on their multiscreen
Burritos and bugs, what a day for a first flights.
Let's be realistic about this. Whatever aviation enthusiasts might like to think the first flight of a restored vintage aircraft is a minor event in the general scheme of things.
Depends really. when our money has been spent on this project, and when it is a pretty big thing locally, I dont see how some possibly corrupt politician returning home halfway round the world, deserves any more time than this.
At the risk of getting political, current events in Pakistan could very well affect the stability of that whole part of the world for years to come. This is an international matter & is far more important than flying an antique aeroplane.
Maybe, maybe not. But her playing ringmaster to a media circus doesn't require missing out on our own historic event. The world isn't going to change in the next couple of hours.
