Very nice set up, there is a similar display at Elvington.

Sadly not known. The turret is original – the fuselage is replica – I supplied the drawings. Thanks for posting Roger!

Hi Roger
Yes, thats an FN4. Is that Brussels by any chance?

Hi Elliott,
Yes, so it is known one? Thought I had discovered something? Any clue which one it is/was?
