Beautiful job. "A restored World War II Spitfire that saw service in the Battle of Britain has gone on public show in Dumfries. The plane was salvaged from the bottom of Loch Doon in Ayrshire in 1982 after a four-year search by divers. It crashed during a training flight from Ayr in 1941, killing the Czech pilot. Returning the bodywork to its former glory has taken 35 years of work and involved several false starts before being carried out. However, the Spitfire is finally ready to take pride of place at Dumfries and Galloway Aviation Museum whose founders first commissioned the salvage project way back in 1977."
