A toss up between the Heads Up link or this one, so hope I chose wisely.
A comment on a social media page suggests that the above Cathay 744 is expected at approx 1030 from Manchester. I assume its fate will ultimately match that of previous Cathay machines.
just for info.
Steve

Always a pleasure Graham. Sorry my contributions won't earn me many gold stars - my main interests are defunct heavy commercial airframes, freighters and unusual overseas , and as Kemble and the likes are more effectively (and frequently) covered by others better placed than I, I do struggle to be original!! Still, will always chip in where I can,

visability bad at the moment has been put back but there is supposed to be another due in november as well regards bob Great Bob , thanks. B-HUI and B-HUJ were the last remaining ex-Cathay passenger 744s at Hong Kong, following a fairly high-profile withdrawal from service. The others have been previously been flown to worldwide destinations for part-out. With 'HUI now on the tarmac at Manchester and eventually on its way, suspect that B-HUJ will be the other in November UPDATE ** No arrival today due to adverse weather conditions at Bruntingthorpe. Social media reports revised ETA a.m. Monday 31.10 Potential ETD from Manchester 1000L |

All contributions are always most welcome Steve! The forum wouldn't function unless its members took the time and trouble to post.
