It's actually a fairly original Spitfire having gone to the Dutch AF after WWII, then used as a decoy, a museum at Delfzijl, and after restoration from a somewhat derelict state it joined the Aviodome museum. It's been in storage at Duxford for about 10 years after being acquired by Historic Flying.
