Never had a chance to check it out anyone heard of this ? .
When you find that one there is a Spitfire in a coal mine at a little place named Acland, not far from Oakey Queesnland. Oakey is now home to a few army rotary aviators and was used to store hundreds of war surplus fighters etc. (i have a photo somewhere) It is supposedly a brand new, in the crate, Mk 24.

and wait, there's also a couple of Kittyhaks in a cave somewhere near tipperary on the Daly River in the Northern Territory. That whole area is well adorned with crashed fighters from both sides of WW11 and a few heavies as well.

Acland I will never forget, as a young fella a mate of mine used to have a chick there, Debby Sherriff. We used to tell him when we were up to mischief, that we were gonna go over to Acland and shoot up the sherriff!
