Aircraft Description

One of the lowest hour examples in the world today and only one civilian owner since leaving the military. This historic WWII aircraft, with war time service history, is about as close to original spec as it’s possible to get! The rear cabin is fitted out with original parachute seats and incudes a static line system (last used during 75th Anniversary commemorative parachute events over Northern France).

The Aircraft is also somewhat a movie star having made around 100 onscreen appearances from TV shows like Band of Brothers, The Crown and Catch 22 to big screen appearances such as Monuments Men, Darkest Hour and Indiana Jones (plus many more!).
