    I think you will find the Spitfire is not MV 268 but is MV 263

    I would guess the farmer might sell for a huge profit but with the IWM seemingly to be cutting back i can’t see that happening.

    I think you might find the land is not the farmers to sell

    The single seater won’t be progressing anytime soon, unless they manage to find a replacement wing centre section. Sadly it slipped it’s jacks and split the main spar.

    think you will find that is bull s–t

    Alohha1234,

    If you ask the question you will get an answer from the horses mouth. BWB is the resident expert on the type. Don’t make assumptions, either research or ask questions.

    Totally agree BWB was taught and tormented by the best
