A black Spitfire is supposed to be in the IAF museum in Hatserim: 3114'16.20"N 3441'46.49"E. I doubt we'll have better resolution of the area anytime soon, so I guess you could just place a general placemark over there.

The plane used to be Ezer Weizman's plane. You can also see an aerial photo of the museum here. However, the planes in the photo aren't configured as they are in Google Earth imagery..

Hallo DelPiero , I guess the black Spitfire is inside, its a working plane.
If you download the picture, then you can zoom in on a picture viewer.
You will find the two spitfires on the first row, just behind the building, right side.
Thanks for posting.


Hi carmedic , If you take a very good look you can see the Hurricane,
they have rebuild the site, a year ago i searched for the Lancaster, but it was not there,(in restoration), the circle and the roads to it was not there either. (update the images there) very nice..
Thanks for posting.
