Another very nice restoration. With reference to the FX Sqn codes worn by TD314 and TA805, is the Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar collection owned by a consortium and is there a long term goal of the collection?
This particular one is owned by an individual, I don`t know about the rest of the collection.

Excellent news!
A couple of photographs and potted historical background here! http://globalaviationresource.com/v2/2013/12/07/news-spitfire-mkix-td314-first-post-restoration-flight/
Turning to the hoary old question, how many fliers are we up to now ?
It was, I think, a little under 50 not so long ago, so now perhaps a few more than 50 ? Where is a resident Spitfire expert when you need them..
