In reply top Not sure about PA474 - It was laid up for a period...... N/T posted by Paul McMillan on Wed Jan 08, 2003 04:18:25 AM
Spitfire Mk. XIX PM631 of the BBMF has had continuos service since November 1945 by my reckoning.
PS915 had a period as a Gate Guard.
Former BBMF Mk XIX PS853 was technically 'Struck Off Charge' Cat.5c at West Raynham but was subsequently 'Bought Back On Charge'in November 1962 for CFE Comm. Flight.
