Should be some changes with the stored stuff over the next few weeks as I believe that the old Party Plane...the MK 747...is due to be scrapped at last. This will require pretty much everything on the southside of the runway to be moved.
Also possible that a ‘crash scene’ will be staged for film work over a two week period, possibly involving an A330.
Not sure if the Zeroavia Do228 has flown yet with the new fuel cell technology (I was told by one of our engineers that it had but cannot find out definitively and yesterday it was doing lengthy ground running of its engines which might suggest it hasnt yet flown).
Zeroavia also seem to have a C208 (N208AD, I think) which has been flying a lot of late.
A further interesting new-tech flying machine is at Kemble, hidden away at the moment albeit briefly visible yesterday....Vertical Aerospace’s VX4. Worth having a look at Verticals web site for details. Quite futuristic, if somewhat complex.
So....Kemble seems to have quietly attracted some cutting edge stuff recently albeit not particularly busy with airliners, executive jets or indeed GA.
Here endeth the update, for what it is worth.

Thanks Graham...I am useless at attaching links!
NB...G-EVTL is the Vx4 (or Vx1)

Do you have any further details of the A330? I noted that it had been repainted as G-KNDM last week.

The 330 is VP-CNW.
