Good evening... :)

Where's the spitfire....!? >:( ;D



Nice mustang though....


;)



He has a very nice Spit. Anyone who has ever built a 1/72 Heller or Matchbox plastic Mk XVI Spitfire will be familiar with its markings too.

Oddly for a rescued gate-guardian it wasn't acquired and restored by Historic Flying Ltd like many others, rather going through the Booker workshops of PPS as seems to be preferred by Mr Weeks. :)

I had a buncha pics of the Spitfire, too. That's why I got them confused.

Did you get to see it fly?

He did a few passes in it. Very loud, very fast.
