A few gratuitous CFS3 shots, only Merlin engined aircraft allowed...
Lovely English summer weather for flying my Spit...

Destroying bridges rather than going under them

Ah the joys of the Wooden Wonder

Remember 500lb bombs mean not having to say you are sorry

(and this is the first time I've used a mossie for bombing! And the first pass. Not bad for a fighter jock)

Nice shots Mark, but I'm not too keen on those drop tanks on the Spit. Although tested with Mustang tanks, they fouled the airflow and caused underwing damage at high speed. Apart from the famous "Beer Barrel" MkIX, most wartime Spits used the "Slipper tank" under the center line.

You are of course perfectly correct Roger. I've got some happy snaps of the Beer Barrel, and a wonderful description of the handling by the pilot in one of my Spit books. It made me laugh like a drain!
