Very lucky indeed Dan! Where was it? The only one I've seen in person is the one at Duxford.
There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I do believe I've seen one in person when I was a wee lad.
It wouldn't surprise me if there were only three left. After we gave the leftovers to the Russians, who knows?

I believe 3 are still airworthy. There are known to be around 33 P-39s and 3 P-400 still in existance. One was only recently recovered from a Russian lake...
