Someone made the suggestion that it should fly off the JS Kaga. Landing would be a problem due to the lack of arresting gear.


I'm hoping they can do a formation with it, ME-109, FW-190, P-51, and a Spitfire with anything else from WW2 they can get.

Thanks for posting that! Always had a distinct affection for the Wirraway and the Boomerang - both still well remembered in Australia, but unjustly forgotten elsewhere.

If someone has one, yes. I think it would neat to have a flyby of the group for VE or VJ day.
