Flying display? It's not clear from the wording on your link.
However, I took photos of it flying from Bruntingthorpe on the 23rd. June last. Pretty spectacular.
Whether it passed the test programme I've no idea.

Its passed and all the certs are issued. But on an earlier statement (the one online has been amended) - It said it will fly to the airfield, and be on static display. I thought we were going to see it fly? Not just sit there.

I gather it is the cost of flying it that's the problem.

I think I'll take a trip there Do you know if they will be doing a low level pass? Last time I saw one of these flying it passed low over my house and rattled the chimney pots, fantastic sound.

I think that 558 is due to fly at around 1330
