I'll go with this very early DHC - the 11th pre-production prototype Chipmunk, G-AKDN. Built in 1946 and the oldest Chippie still airworthy. Seen here at Old Warden on 22nd May 2016 for the 70th anniversary gathering.

(This aircraft was subsequently written off after a crash whilst displaying at the Farnborough Air Show on 4 September 1984-the aircraft's three occupants escaped without injury; however one spectator was slightly injured by flying debris).
