Why wouldn’t the CAA alow a newly restored spitfire to fly in the UK???
And so is Max Alpha Aviations F4U-5NL Corsair

As far as i know, the EU rule states that pilots of free bus pass age can only be certified on single engine aircraft as far as know?
Hence the mossie, P38 and Tigercat were shifted on, and also why the Beau was put up for sale.
Why have aircraft you can’t fly yourself??
So is the Beaufighter for sale then?
Don’t know, He could fly the tigercat though. If not Pete Kensey or Nick grey could, if they know how 🙂
Although in a ‘few’ years time we might well see the Beaufighter ‘Tearing up the skies’
just imagine that the Beaufighter and Blenheim together :diablo:
TFC’s Corsair Open Applications and Approvals Cases
Application Type Received Date Expected Date of Processing
CAA PERMIT ISSUE 24/11/2011 14/12/2011
So hopefully the corsair might make a test flight late 2011 or early 2012!
Does anyone know why restoration has stopped on the Beaufighter,Sea fury,CR.42 ect?
So am I right in thinking that VZ345 will be restored by Precision Aerosplace in Australlia?
Well in a few years hopefully TFC’s Sea Fury FB.11 VZ345 will be completed aswell!
TFC’s Bristol Beaufighter although it has a few years left!

Great update It’s a joy to see almost all of Duxfors warbirds out in the sun together (wasn’t expecting the P-47) but it looks fantastic. The shackelton does not look good as it is… Something needs to be done!
Had TFC’s P-40f have it’s Cowlings, Prop and Spinner back on it yet? It looked a bit naked with it baring all!
Thanks and much appreciated,

THey don’t build aircraft like that anymore. Wonder how posh the interior is on that. Is it UK reg?
