I visited Fantasy of Flight early september and was shown around the storage area by “Speedy”, at least that was his nickname:cool:
Saw the Ki61 wing up close and the condition was remarkable. The Japanese stencilling was clearly visible on the wing bomb racks and all piping etc looked to be complete. A real time capsule. Saw some nice goodies in there.

It was said that this section was to be used in the ex swedish Firefly now in Holland. I also heard that substantial remains of both airframes are still on site.

I’d like to second that request re. the Brown Brothers catalogue please- we’re often coming up against weird old fastenings on Bluebird!?
I have one I don’t need anymore, and is for sale.
pm me for details.

Extending the French theme.
Any info where and when all the French Halifax were scrapped. Perhaps something remains there. France is a big country.:cool:
