    Isn’t this where they eat Seal flipper pie and a delicacy called scrunchions consisting of deep fried herring tongue

    Luckily didn’t come across those ‘delicacies’ 😮 just the best French onion soup in the world (from an Italian restaurant) as previously mentioned. New Brunswick had an interesting green vegetable called ‘fish heads’ 😀

    As the advert mentions Ex South African Air Force, my best guess is that it is still in South Africa.

    Good work, missed the S.A. connection and the Z-S detail! 😮

    Well I don’t know where it is, but I’ll start the ball rolling by saying its reg begins with a Z and ends in an S. Z?-??S Could be S.Africa or N.Zealand??

    Where is it advertised?

    i saw it today, didn’t get any good photos though, although i did get ‘caught’ taking photos of it. I was cautioned by the police under the Stop and Search section of the Terrorism Act. yay!

    Way to go Adam! 😀

    I ran the N number and it didn’t match. A little research turned up that there were 7 twins produced though.

    Correct! If the single was an impressive STOL aircraft, what would the twin be capable of? 😀

    I had read (on the Spit-rep discussion group) that someone from Nova Scotia had built a “half-scale” Spitfire. That could mean anything of course, since it was reported in the news. So “half-scale” could really be “80% scale” for all I know!! Just thought it needed checking out.

    Here is a link for a ‘Y2K Project’ :confused: Not sure what it is or how far it got!

    There is a great website dedicated to this machine at http://www.1917sopwithcamel.com – where you will see, amongst a great deal of other interesting stuff, a shot of B2691 in the barn “as found”.

    This is a great website to visit for Camel info.

    This is the link for the barn photo.

    For Texantomcat, out of a production of 5597 Camels, there are four other Camel F.1’s in existence and three Camel 2F-1’s.

    I know that CA house prices are going through the roof, but is anyone else of the opinion that this item is overpriced? :confused:
