              Restoration

SCBH has been restoring Spitfires since our conception in 2011, from our first Spitfire a Mk1 X4650.

Our restoration department has steadily grown over the years and is now housed within our hangars 204/205 at ex WWII fighter airfield Biggin Hill. Within our restoration hangar we have a full set of wing and fuselage build jigs which have been used to restore a large amount of UK’s flying Spitfires.

​

We hold the appropriate approvals undertake assessments and provide reports to the CAA on the aircraft design/build standard for the initial issue of a Permit to Fly for aircraft of military origin in accordance with our A8-25 approval.

​

Our current Organisational privileges permit us to restore All marks of Spitfire, Hawker Hurricane, Messerschmitt Bf 109, North American T6 Texan / Harvard, Noorduyn Aviation Ltd AT-16 Harvard II Bouchon and North American P51D Mustang aircraft and Engines. SCBH are happy to consider restoring any other aircraft types, give us a call!

 

We also hold MAOS Part 145 maintenance approval and are proud to carry our major/minor servicing of the Royal Air Force Single Engine fighter aircraft fleet on behalf of the Battle of Britain Flight.
