Is this a composite using modern photos?

The picture is a modern photo which I just modified, eliminating the road, and the plane is the JustFlight Spitfire.

I'm not familiar with Beachy-Head, but aren't those the cliffs of Dover? Beautiful shot Dave. :)

No, it's Beachy Head (no hyphen). Note the lighthouse at the bottom. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beachy_Head

Often mistaken for the White Cliffs of Dover.

No, I'm not either Larry but in my photo search, I discovered it is, as Hagar says, completely different from the White Cliffs.
