I know Nuting................

My Grandad worked on Jindivik!

Would be interesting to find out how it came to ditch and what happened to the pilot, but don't suppose that will happen until they are able to locate some serial numbers.

A bit of info on the pilot in this thread:

Thanks for the Link Steve

I was going to say in my earlier post it appeared to be an F model purely by the nose cowl shape - but figured I'd have the whole world down on
me - of course the giveaway is that its all olive drab

Hi Leif,

I'm not convinced that it will never fly again. Some of the current airworthy Spits have been rebuilt from less. As long as the constructor's plate is there they can build an airframe round it and pass it off as a restoration.

Thats very true Steve

I was amazed at seeing all that was left of the MAAM P61 when they hauled it out of the jungle and they say that will fly again.

of course the incredible one was the Wildcats hauled out of the great lakes they had minimal replacement to make flyable again

And the Spit Mk1 being restored which was recovered from a similar position from the French coast.

As Steve says, all they need is the data plate...
