Great to see it happen at last. I'm sure they'll have better luck with this restoration than the previous two. Really looking forward to seeing her fly 'in the flesh'.

Thanks, Noddy!
Whenever Blenheims and Hampdens come to mind, my heart goes out to the poor blighters who had to fly them against far superior fighting machines.

I've been following the Blenheim since 1987. I missed the original aircraft except for seeing the remains at Duxford and have been a regular `bomb` contributor ever since.
Got to see it a few times before it's second sad demise and followed the restoration yet again

.
This aircraft goes down in my own personal history as the one I've seen the insides of more than the outsides
Glad to see it flying
