Waddington airshow on Sunday and then Flying Legends the week after. Prepare to be bored stupid by my airshow photos everyone

Nice shots Roger. Interesting to see the XVI. Last time I saw them they were on static display at Biggin Hill in 1996 or 97, before they went to Coningsby for cannibalisation. I say they, as I'm sure there were two of them. Interesting if they are now restoring one. Also seems to have gained a canopy from HFL's TD248!

Great photos! "Bored" and "airshow" don't belong in the same sentance!

Spit II has the perfect code letters for a flightsim repainter - DXT

I know that the other XVI was struck off charge a year or so back but I had no idea that one was up for restoration. I never noticed the hood either. I wounder if it is from HFL?

Nice photos Roger, not enough Spits though
