For a nation whose air force didn't operate them, we sure have a decent amount winkyy.gif (and yes I'm aware of the NZ RAF squadrons, just meaning the RNZAF itself smile.gif )

I make the following list:
IXc PV270/ZK-SPI - Brendon Deere, Ohakea
Tr.IX MH367/ZK-WDQ - Doug Brooker, under repair at AvSpecs, Ardmore
XIV NH799/ZK-XIV - Provenance Fighter Sales, under rebuild at AvSpecs, Ardmore (for sale if you want it tongue.gif )
XVI TB252/N??? - Tony Banta, under rebuild at AvSpecs, Ardmore
XVI TE288 - RNZAF Museum, Wigram
XVI TE456 - Auckland War Memorial Museum

And, of course, the three Mk.Vs and two Mk.XVIs that have departed our shores in the last decade.
