Don’t know. G-INFO lists her serial as 67, according to airport data, the original was serial 64:

Well, she’s arrived 🙂

Take a look at the news pages on Duxford Update and you’ll find a pic of her tucked up in the corner.

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

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

Hi Daz,

Don’t return the card just yet, it might be worth you buying this though!

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.
