: Hi Cees,
:
: Let me answer the first question you asked below (Spitfire
: being displayed outside). At this moment the folks at amb
: ala do not have an enclosed shelter for display that could
: take the aircraft in. So they built up a platform and dis
: played it. They are keeping the aircraft covered with tarp
: s and would display it only on cermonial days (important v
: isits etc). When i took pictures - i had to get the tarps
: removed.
:
: One of the Hurricane wings (the one you probably saw propp
: ed up against the wall without any metal skinning) is now
: locked up and kept by the organisation in bangalore. They
: seemed to have painted the whole wing with primer or white
: paint and its now stored behind lock and key. No idea as
: to what they are planning to do with it.
:
: The second case where we saw the Spitfire and Hurricane wi
: ng together - I have no clue at all. Basically the person
: whom i made contact on this and who gave me the picture ha
: s dissappeared off the scope altogether. So I am in the da
: rk right now.
