Thinking of my last post, I understand that the idea was to choose a/c that were eye catching to the public, and yes, the TT schemed Tempest and Hawker Hart certainly fit in. However the KI46 is not in the least eye catching, and I cant see Black 6 being of interest to the average public, compared to the option, as has been mentioned, being displayed next to the Kittyhawk.
One of the stored Spitfires, in its post war colours would certainly have been eye catching, and I have no problem with replicas of rare a/c, but the plastic model on the door is beyond belief!
Far better the Mustang be rolled outside with re-enactors, and maybe have its engine run – what are kids going to learn from a revolving table? Pity the owner didnt donate it to the BBMF! In RAF markings it would be fantastic flying with the Dak.
