Whereabouts of G-AIDN

Hi Folks,
Yesterday (23/02/2010) I rang the company who are re-furbishing the aircraft, and at present she is at Kemble in storage awaiting the credit-crunch to ease before completing the job, which includes re-fitting the original engine when she was new in 1944. I was an apprentice aircraft fitter in 1958 when the spitfire was at the Hampshire Aero Club, and in my spare time I would go and help with the job of getting her airworthy.
Billy Butlin (of holiday camp fame) was financing the job so that he could enter the Marble Arch to Arc de Triomphe race. She won the race as the fastest piston-engined aircraft. If anybody wants more information, please contact me on [email]briandi@uwclub.net[/email]
