The only airworthy 14 I can recall off the top of my head that has been sold in recent years is SM832, the high back 14 that went to from TFC to France and back to TFC again in 2002 and is now......?

I'm sure MrA will be able to answer your question

There are a few for sale at historicflying.com/for_sale.htm
Mk 14 Sputfires i hope not,down here it's a girls plane.
And one is pink.

I've gotta pretty cool landlord...I'm willing to take it off your hands and
hide it here out of public view in order to spare the warbird community the
shame of pink. I'll thrust myself on my own pitard for the team...

A pink Spitty..how will I explain that to the neighbors????

[DaveM2]

Tell that to Tim Wallis and any number of wartime pilots who flew it. I think you'll find the pink Spit was a PR XI, and is a documented wartime scheme. Peter A will know more.

No - it is a razorback P-47G, "Little Demon". He did own two or three bubble hood P-47Ds in earlier times

Here is PL965 an ex 16 Squadron Spitfire PR XI at a private 16 Squadron reunion in a genuine and accurate 16 Squadron livery as applied to their FR Mk IX's. Oh and the PR Mk XIX to the rear is also an ex 16 Squadron machine.
