Hello salymap, how very interesting. Pity Australia is so far away !
I got to fly Ansons & Oxfords ( unofficially ! ) during my wartime posting to ' darkest Africa.' Plus memories of ' maintaining the airworthiness ' of my three Spitfires in 1941 at RAF Hawkinge, near Folkestone, (' Hellfire Corner ' as it was known ). a place you would no doubt know of. To see these planes again for me, would be a truly memorable event.
This prompts me to wonder if activity of this kind is taking place in this country & if so, where ? and if not, WHY NOT !!
However, I think this deserves another thread all of it's own. ( Let's give photography & vintage cars a well-earned rest ).
