Spitfire XVI TE384

Anyone know what's happening with this Spitfire?

I had read a while ago it was being overhauled/restored to fly once again, but not seen anything else on it.

I saw it on Ken McBride's mezzanine at San Martin, sitting in storage. That was over 10 years ago now and AFAIK it hasn't moved since.

I did see some photos of it disassembled, presumably in the same place, but that was a good few years ago, too.

Careful guys, this could be an under the radar restoration. The mods have shown we're not allowed to talk about this. Better to avoid anything that has to deal with warbird restorations. :roll:

Surprised we're not all on double secret probation. Or maybe we are and just don't know it. :?
