    Looks like this rumour was wrong. It was Surrey.

    A close study of the ‘Angels’ footage shows there was a lone Spitfire parked in the background in one scene. Any ideas on location and serial?

    I found the negative. Here is the Scimitar in the scrap yard at Coley’s yard in 1958. From memory also in the yard at that time were Coastal Command Lancasters, a Fiesler Storch, many Hunters, the Blackburn YA-7(?) proto, Harvards and lots of experimental Farnborough items ….Hmmm.

    The Spitfires in the buried boxes was actually Burma not India. Still a little way to run on that one me thinks. 50/50.

    Shouldn’t that be Doug Arnold’s son DAVID? There is a son Peter who has not been involved with the aviation side of things warbird for many years. Perhaps worth saying that long term contributor to Flypast , Spitfire historian Peter R Arnold, is no relation.
