Collings aquires TFC's P-40 Tomahawk

It'll be a shame to see her leave Duxford, but I will admit, I always thought that this particular aircraft really deserves to be in the 'States, being such an important part of American history, and so rare. It's the equivalent of having a rare Battle of Britain survivor hiding somewhere in the Mid West of the USA - just doesn't seem right somehow.
But, at least we in the UK (and visitors to DX from all over the World), have had the opportunity to see it around for some years, both flying at the DX air shows, and as shown here, in the TFC hangar.
Now, can we have P-47 'Snafu' back at it's 78th FG airfield .................
