    Yes I am an active volunteer
    They hope to fly it alongside a Gloster Meteor. I believe it will also attend the show at Fairford.

    The validation flights are taking place this week and I have some pictures of a Spitfire, an Avro Anson and a Canberra on my Flickr site. This is the first one of the Spitfire in the Photostream :

    This is the first one of the Canberra :

    And this is the first one of the Anson :

    Clicking on the pictures will enlarge them and take you to the others.
