Nice Jimbo! ;D

Number one is the Me 163 Komet, that has recently left the IWM for a new home in the States in exchange for a British WW1 type of some sort that I've forgotten!

The second has (former TFC) Spitfire Mk.IX ML417, now sold to the USA, TFC's Goodyear FG1D Corsair, now more familiar in yellow nosed FAA markings and fellow Duxford resident P-47 Thunderbolt, also owned by TFC...

The Meteor looks like an F8, which I believe was swapped for an F-86 in the US. Strangely enough the F-86 has just been loaned to the Midland Air Museum at Coventry - I think for another Meteor...

I think the last shot is of the Buchon in which Mark Hanna sadly lost his life at Sabbadell in 1999... :(

The Third is an F4U-1A Corsair in Ira Kepford's Paint Scheme...

Jimbo get yourself down to Duxford and see most of these oldies for real in the flesh (best to go in winter as everything is on the ground for overhauls so plenty of time to take snaps and talk to people) ;)
