I hate to disagree Jacko, but the New Zealand Hurricane is a significant aircraft to both the UK and New Zealand in that it is a genuine 23 Sqn aircraft that flew in the BoB, and there is at least one NZ pilot in the South Island who has it in his logbook. Why it would be a good idea to buy it and give it India escapes me!

You also didn't give NZ a B[I]8 Canberra, but a part of one, the nose section!

The IAF does have a few of the ex-RNZAF B12s, and we'd like one of those if anyone is feeling generous!
