What is thought to be the world’s best preserved non-flying Spitfire now resides suspended aloft at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow. LA198 was operated by No 602 (City of Glasgow) Squadron in the late 1940s until suffering a heavy landing at Horsham St Faith on July 22 1949. The aircraft subsequently travelled around various airfields in Britain for many years until being gifted to the city almost 50 years later. "
