Spitfire XVI SL721

Posted by dumaresqc on Sat Aug 10, 2002 10:53:58 PM

Does anyone know anything about the current status of Spitfire XVI SL721? That's the blue Spit that Chris Woods was formerly flying in California. It was sold to Micheal Potter of Ottawa, Ontario, but was damaged in a landing incident on September 10, 2001. Pictures in the paper the following day seemed to show relatively minor damage, and the owner said that he planned to get it in the air again, but I certainly haven't heard it in the skies over Ottawa.

Any info on the repairs would be appreciated.
