After World War II, this Spitfire did gate guard duties at several RAF stations in the UK until sold in 1964 to the Air Museum Of Calgary, Canada. After six years of storage, a long restoration was begun, but the aircraft was moved back to the UK before it took to the air again in 1996. It joined the Flying Heritage Collection in 1999 registered N614VC. The aircraft is registered to Vulcan Warbirds, part of the Flying Heritage & Combat Armor Museum organization.
