Well, Saturday was a busy day with the XM655 MaPS AGM in the morning which saw Mike Confirmed as Chairman and Eric as Treasurer.
Following on from the AGM a lot of work was undertaken at the pan including topping up hydraulic fluid levels and tyre pressures, work on the Hooch to try and alleviate a knocking sound (the fan was catching on the guard), the visiting Cadets working on the aircraft jacks and the starting of the Garrett which, despite not being started in years….. Fired and ran faultlessly… Massive credit to the team who have been working on that!
Refurbishment work was also started on some intake blanks with the hope of replacing our ageing ones with some more “fitting”…
Being the first weekend of the month, all ground equipment was also run.
We also had a lovely flypast from a Mustang, video to follow
