Well i hope its back to flying soon. As a kid i lived in Houghton, a small town in Hampshire, John Fairey was the owner of MT 818 at the time and since he lived close by the spitfire was a frequent user of the airspace above Houghton and was a joy to watch. My mum was dating a Met officer at RAF Andover and a good way to get rid of me for a few hrs. was to drop me off at the hangar where MT 818 was kept, with a good supply of rags. I wonder if Fairey ever figured out where the extra few MPH came from,,,,,
