Latest Flying Spitfire to join the Airshow Circus

Temora Aviation Museum, Temora, NSW, Australia

RAAF Centenary Airshow by Temora Aviation Museum, March 6th 2021

Purchased from USA, and final refurbishment work completed for airworthiness, Bishopp Aviation Pty. placed TE392 on the Australian civil registry as VH-XWE on December 2nd, 2019. They have repainted her to represent a Spitfire flown by the legendary Australian ace, Frederick Anthony Owen Gaze, who is credited with shooting down 13.5 enemy aircraft over Europe – including both a Messerschmitt Me 262 and Arado Ar 234! The Spitfire is expected to take part in flying activities with Fighter Pilot, an organization which operates a small fleet of vintage warbirds out of Archerfield Airport in Brisbane, Queensland.
