You're correct, it's 26+47 (that was a type).

The identity of the G91 is different as well, it now appears to be 32+58/5 (also ex Baarlo), and not 99+05.

Kind regards,

Re: Baarlo & Kessel (collection)

Where did the Thunderstreak P-263 go in Belgium? Didn't find the answer on this question in this topic, but the P-263 is now preserved in Tessenderlo in Belgium. It's with the same owner who also has the Westland Whirlwind (XG576), but not at the same location. The Whirlwind is now roof-mounted at ...
