According Last news: Sally B is still grounded with a "bad" engine, not sure about when she will be back in the air. :cry: :cry:

She is currently grounded but they hope to have her flying in time for Flying Legends.

Since Pink Lady and Sally B never fly in the same piece of sky together, I wouldn't be expecting a 3-ship formation. A long lens and a lot of luck will be needed to get all 3 in the same photo, but it should make a cool sight and sound (assuming Sally B is fixed in time)
