Simply WOW…! What a great image…. I’m a huge fan of WWII aircraft, the RAF Spitfire top of my tree for fighters, and the USAAF B17 for bombers. Was lucky enough the last time we went to Duxford that 2 were doing joyrides Didn’t have bookings (or time, or readies) but was great to see them load up; taxi, doing low flybys & landings etc
