Regrettably, there are fewer than 10 of these presently flying worldwide. While most survivors have found their place in museums, it is quite rare to witness them grace the skies during airshows. The captivating allure of their unique design is immeasurable, making it even more extraordinary to stumble upon an opportunity to purchase a fully restored Lightning. The reality is that there are very few restoration shops with both the willingness and the capacity to take one on. One shop however, in Australia, has already proved its mettle by taking on three of these complex aircraft, the first of which is to be delivered to its museum customer shortly.

This is an opportunity to acquire a WW-II aerial combatant so rare that for many years, and indeed in most quarters even to this day, it is thought of as an extinct species, but for a couple of underwater 'corn-flakes' wrecks. In fact if you go to find it among lists of surviving Japanese WW-II aircraft, you will not find any reference to any surviving examples at all.

The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt was one of the most significant fighter aircraft to go into combat during WW-II but sadly, despite over 15,000 being built, barely a dozen remain in flyable condition worldwide today. And unlike the Spitfires, Mustangs and Kittyhawks that they fought alongside, there is no move to rebuild Thunderbolts in anything but drip-feed numbers. So when a P-47 appears on the market in any condition at all, it is a rare occasion.

This advanced restoration is being completed by a highly regarded, experienced workshop and is not their first T-6 or their last.

SOLE SURVIVOR FOR SALE! This stunning early WW-II bomber is the sole airworthy survivor of the very distinctive Avro Anson Mk.I, an aircraft of massive significance to the British Commonwealth at the beginning of World War Two.
