Make them an offer! Is this the same aircraft auctioned in 2012? Nope, guess not. . . seems to be a repeat of history then.

If I win the Eurolotto tonight I will buy it. But I'll keep it based in the Britain mostly although I will bring it over to my newly bought airport once I get checked out on it. I can't guarantee I won't paint it in Irish Air Corps markings for a while though. :airplane:

Calling all British citizens and anyone who can pretend to be British for a minute.



I understand the desire Swoop, but that bird was in India for 54 years and was privately purchased and restored.  When I first read your post I thought it was one of the Battle of Britain Flight Hurricanes.

It would be nice if it remained in England, but someone needs to step up with the cash. 

I'd be hollering for all the American made warbirds to come home too, but then I remember all the restorations done by the Fighter collection and elsewhere overseas.   I'm guessing the Aussies might like their Aussie built Beau back too :)
