Anybody have any news on this machine yet, or are the US customs impounding it as a weapon of war like the NZ Tr9 spitfire.
Just a quick note, i see that Courtesy have the Kindsvater Buchon up for sale. Anybody got a few quid handy?:D

If it’s the person I was told it is, then he must be one of the few people who have made money out of aviation………:D
Must be someone from the CAA then 😉 :diablo:

Don’t know who he is, but he’s obviously realised the way to acquire a small fortune is to start with a large one and put your money into Warbirds!:D

Does anyone know who the new owner is, and what other gems to do you think they may acquire?

Stern von Afrika isn´t a bad film. Definitely worth a watch, and better still if you can speak German!
They are all Hispano powered aircraft in the film.

Does this mean that I have to turn in my “Real Messerschmitts have Merlins” membership card??
