Aircraft Stranded in Boston?

Does anyone know anything about the virgin aircraft that is parked at the North Cargo area at Logan? I think it may be G-VELD that never left last night, but the flight tracker doesn't seem to think so... the VA website seems to think that it will be staying here until 3 April. Anyone know why or whats wrong with the aircraft?

Thanks!

Ah, that's because it is posted in a Members Only forum, and if I recall correctly you were having difficulties in logging in there. I would suggest you log out of the site and then log in using the padlock at the top right hand corner of the site and see if that helps. If not the guru that is Pete must come along and rectify it.

Frank that's the 340-600 which operated VS111 today which left LHR at 10:30 and was the replacement for VS11 that was cancelled yesterday.
It will ferry back the pax on the cancelled return leg from BOS yesterday.

So there will be two flights from BOS today.

Actually just read your post more closely.

If it's G-VELD, i.e. a 340-300 then that is today's regular and scheduled VS 11 flight which arrived from LHR. From what I know it should operate as normal today but maybe it's gone tech again???
