Sting Carbon S4 G-DBSB, immediately below, which
should have no p.i. (2019/JUN.961).


G-DDUE Schleicher ASK-13 (13591). Although we included this
aircraft in the restorations on page JUN.962 – and showed
the cancellation date (22.05.19) – we failed to include it
among the cancellations on page JUN.966.

And two amendments from Cyril Leeson:
G-MZMK AMF Chevvron 2-32C c/n should be 040 (JUN.965). M-ABLX/M-ABLY Type should read Boeing 737-8AL (JUN.963).
