<p>This is the Fighter Collection's Hellcat, seen under maintenance in the Southern half of Hangar 2 at Duxford.
The aircraft is painted to represent F6F-3 '40467 / 19' flown by top Navy ace Alexander Vraciu, although it is actually F6F-5K '80141'. Having said that, the airframe was alleged to include parts of '40467' when it was rebuilt.
After a long rest, hopefully it will be flying again soon.
c/n A-11286.
