If TB252 is the other Spitfire in their hangar, a Mk XVI I think, it’s stored pending NH799 being finished.
I don’t believe the Mossie is headed to the UK now, the delay has put the owner off the idea last I heard.
nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Looks like im heading to Virginia for my hols next year!!!!:diablo:

NH799, which Sir Tim Wallis crashed in (in 1996). Looking forward to having 3 Spits down here!
