Photo Comment

Originally ordered by the RAF as KL161 but diverted to the RCAF, Grumpy was registered with the FAA in 1966 as N88972. After serving in the USA as a fire bomber in the late 1960's, she was flown to the UK in 1987, and registered as G-BYDR, she now flies with The Fighter Collection out of Duxford.
