It would be nice to get it fixed, but after speaking to the pilot he was a split second decision from ditching it into the sea at the show on Sunday so it is majorly buggered! Hopefully she flies again soon!

Any more news on the sick F16?
I see the Newcastle Academy JP is still on the southside apron so assumed the F16 is still inside the academy hanger.
