Didn't I read over on the Flypast forum that this one is headed back across the pond? Maybe I'm confusing it with Frasca's bird which I know just went to Germany but I thought I read that this one was headed that way as well.

Yeah, 'cause England doesn't have enough Spitfires pfftt...

I've not read anything but speculation on who, or where, the buyer is.

The Frasca Mk XVIII went overseas a while ago. I just learned of this sale today.

I wonder if Rich Palmers son will have to crawl up the ar$e end of the Spitfire, to undo the hardware he installed when it arrived .
The boy has grown quite a bit since then I'm sure
We will learn in good time where her new home is. I wonder if Jim Beasley will be adding anything to fill the slot in his hangar?
