A few more from Duxford 27/08/09

Just a few from an aspiring “Happy Snapper”… tried not to dupe with Laharve’s brill posting.

See that the number of FSM Spitfires is growing, 2 outside Area 51 plus IWM’s 2.

Cheers Roobarb…

looks a lucrative market for someone “Can’t afford a Spit then why not get a FSM instead!”

I see on one of the suppliers web sites you can get a taxiable FSM Spit for less than the price of a family saloon

Anyone know what IWM’s plans are for the latest spitfire FSM??[/QUOTE]

It’s not the property of IWM at all. The work is being carried out by ARC for an overseas client. I notice no-one is moaning about any “colour or roundel innaccuracies”……..yet! Mind you they’ll be some head scratching at the serial number 😉

Last few….. Honest!

Nice to see the far side of hanger 2 open again.

Meanwhile the TFC Spit 18 is having the paint stripped.
