It might be of interest to the younger members of pprune to know that this Fairey Battle came from a crash site in Iceland. It was fetched home to Brize Norton by one of my 53 Squadron colleagues in the back of his Belfast in 1972.
Some bits also came from some wreckage found on Larkhill range on Salisbury Plain that had been lying there in the grass since 19-canteen. I cannot be sure but I think the Iceland wreckage had severe fire damage to the centre section and the Salisbury Plain wrecks made up the difference.
53 Squadron moved many historic aircraft including a Hurricane westbound to the NASM in Washington and a Spitfire to Oz. A Stranraer flying boat from British Columbia and a Seagull V (Walrus) from Oz went in the opposite direction. Both of the latter can be seen in the RAF Museum.
