I remember Charles Darby telling me that he had recovered a Vincent from the Pacific theatre. It was a RNZAF example if I remember correctly, and was supposed to be in pretty good condition. I believe that it was recovered in the same time frame as his other Pacific theatre recoveries. Perhaps this is the aircraft listed on Barnstormers?
