    looking through the TFC website, they have added the Beechcraft 17 Staggerwing to there collection. The TFC arent going to be P-40 less for long, shouldnt there P-40b be flying by may 😀

    “TFC’s Curtiss P-40M Kittyhawk has left Duxford to reside with Peter Teichman at North Weald. Beechcraft Staggerwing G-BRVE, previously based at North Weald, is now resident in TFC’s hangar. More details to follow”

    Paul Allen (Microsoft co owner) owns the ex TFC Mossie.

    i wouldnt be surprised if the TFC have acquired RS700, yes they have alot of projects going on at the moment, but they might outsource parts to be restored like on the P-36. This way the restoration wouldnt take as long.

    PaulC do you know if both catalinas are to remain in the UK, or go abroad? i heard that the ex-plane sailing cat was “rumoured” to be sold to a guy in Ireland. But what of the Ex Greenpeace Cat?

    i did a google search and this is from the plane sailing site “where a complete repaint (to a USAAF colour scheme as flown from nearby Halesworth during WWII) is being carried out” i did a search Halesworth Pbys and apparently the 5th ERS was based at Halesworth. i might be completely wrong, but i think this is what the catalina will look like , this is what i found on google searching for 5th ERS catalina-

    i think this thread is a good idea 🙂 im looking forward to legends this year, and its good for people to get an idea of what is going to be there.

    does anyone know if the OFMCs Yak-3 is on its way to UK? Also if the Polikarpov 1-15 is going to be performing this year ?
