Continuous or just oldest flying warbird?

Cos don't think the LVG was airworthy for a long time post WW2 until Shuttleworth refurbed it in the (?)70's

if it's continuous I think some of the early Confed aircraft (eg B24D) or MH434 (or other Belgian TT Spits) must be up there near the top of the pile
