Duplicates: Consider LA198 and LA255 the Nation’s duplicates

Talking with Steve Subritzky last September he suggested to me that Peter Dye was totally sold on acquiring the Vincent a few years back. “Just got to have it”, he said

It sounds like he was over-ruled by the ‘bean-counters’. 🙂

As to values, from the Nation’s point of view…the sole Vickers Vincent for a Mk 21 Spitfire, sounds to me like a more than equitable trade in the Nation’s favour.

Mark,

I would agree completely, but I also agree with Dave that this properly belongs in New Zealand
