    I think the Retrotec Hawker Fury K5674 could be a good contender.

    Seemingly it has been paperwork issues rather than engineering ones which have delayed the first flight, which would otherwise have taken place last year.

    ”K5674 G-CBZP Hawker Fury 1 c/n 41H-67550
    Originally built as part of a batch of 20 against Contract No: 409396/35 by Hawker for RAF with K5674.
    Initially delivered 20.11.35 to 2 Aircraft Storage Unit Cardington. Delivered 02.06.36 to 43 Sqdn
    Tangmere. To 5 MU Kemble 06.02.39. To 47 MU Sealand 14.07.40. To South African AF 05.08.40. Guy
    Black & team recovered it from a farm in South Africa. Regd 02.04.03 as G-CBZP to Historic Aircraft
    Collection Ltd. Rebuild by Retrotec at St Leonards-on-Sea and moved out for final assembly and flight
    testing by 04.11. CAA Exemption issued 19.05.11 to carry RAF serial K5674 expires 31.05.14.”

    A couple of pics have turned up from Dads collection, first one has the tal of RIH in shot plus a few other tugmasters in view. Most likely that this was taken at Poddington. The second is a Air to Air of RHM.:)
