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.

I'll go with this one, dug out from the archives.

(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).
