That's one helluva fine looking Spitfire off to the side. Does the thing fly? Whose markings does it wear?

In answer to your query, Bob, yes, it sure does fly! It is painted to represent a Spitfire of 457 (Grey Nurse) squadron of 80 Fighter group in Darwin late in WW2 and bears the codes of Australian Ace Bobby Gibbes DSO DFC*.
I will be interviewing Bobby along with ther members of the sqauadron for the Temora Aviation Museum in the near future.
The Museum have a website with the details of this and other aircraft in the collection.
