Sad news but inevitable, I guess.

Whoever's selling the Phantom would then have enough money to fix the Vixen...

I got the email about this earlier, was going to update the crash thread.

I'm surprised they managed to keep on for as long as they did, but better to call a halt now than risk funding for the other airframes etc.

Not unexpected news given the current situation in the world. I expect most projects like this are taking a hit. Still, it doesn't mean they can't come back to it in a few years.
