I still remember the genuine Spitfire that was for sale at the Archerfield Aerodrome back in the 80's. $1,000,000 at the time. I assume it's either sitting in a hanger or it went overseas because I'm still yet to get a second look at the genuine article.

Hi mate,I would have loved to see her close up like that and see her land and take off.Unfortunately that happened several km from where I was.You can see FELIX on the fuselage clearly in your photos.I believe she is based at Albian Park in Sydney so I will try to get down there one day.Apparently the catalina that is to be housed at Rathmines is being restored in Spain at the moment.
Cheers, Mick
