Although it's sad to see her leaving the U.K she has only been in the country since the mid seventies. If we didn't have movement of airframes the heritage of the U.K would be very much the poorer.
The number of airframes coming from places such as Canada has been far in excess of whats gone there. How many Hurricane's would we be able to see if it wasn't for the Canadian's?
I am sure the TFC had good reasons to sell her and no doubt we haven't seen the last of her !
