The EGB has landed! Despite some technical difficulties I have it on good authority that the payload has been delivered to the first rendez-vous point in Brussels. |

The EGB-VI has been launched towards the Czech Republic.Note that the flightplan has been modified slightly. Doki was originally going to be the second stop on the mission but at the time didn't have access to his collection. He is now ready with plenty of nice material to put in the box so I've put him back in the flightpath after Jacques and before the first stop in the UK (Butch Wilks). Apologies to those waiting in the UK and Ireland but this should mean more goodies for you guys. Note that if anyone elsewhere is interested it would be great to be able to add more people after the current set. Southern Europe seems to be missing entirely this time around so if there's anyone from Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece etc that wants to join in please just send a mail or post here. You don't need to be able to put in amazing stuff to join. The grab bag is particularly good for collectors who are starting out. |

So, now on the way to Daniel.I took a pen (Garland) and added a pen (Fisher Bullet chrome), added an Operator shirt from Spaceport Guyana (Ariane 5 campaign, quite rare just for the staff), trimmed Kapton MLI taken from ATV 2 production, two space flown D2 pins (signed by U. Walter?) back from the '90s, a medal, some patches (and I also took some), a genuine bracket from ATV 4. Hope it will arrive soon to Daniel. Have fun y'all!  and Godspeed. |

Not that I'm partaking in any of this, but I do know Daniel pretty well. I suspect those down the line will be amazed at his generosity of spirit. A finer man, you'd find hard to find. |

Our emails simply don't seem to work Daniel for some odd reason and can't understand why. You're always in our thoughts though. |

The EGB-VI is currently on one of the longest legs of its flight, heading for a below-sea-level landing in Holland, then on to a quick pit-stop in France and onwards to the UK and Ireland.A new stop has been added to the flightpath, so after Ireland the EGB will be heading north east to make a first landing chez Protouk in Scotland. As-ever please let me know or post here if you'd like to be added to the list. Each step of the flightpath takes around a week so the box won't be reaching the end of the current plan until around the end of April. |

Chris and Butch, just to remind you I'm no longer living near High Wycombe. I'm now 17 miles north in Chesham, Buckinghamshire. So you will need to make a mid course landing correction to compensate for that. |

Butch, I'm not sure which is going to get to you first, the EGB or coastal erosion...  Anyway, I've written to Paul to check if it's been sent. |

Just an update. Like the X-37B that goes up and seems to never come down again, I still have no sign of the EGB-6 at this time.I will put a post up on getting it or this time next week if it has not come in. |
