I found an interesting contrast that the first batch of Meteors were registered in the EE …. serial range, meanwhile the piston fighters held the fort.

Looks really nice. Nice to have another airborne. You can’t have too many.

Good to have another early Spitfire flying. There cannot be that many left to return to flight?

Fantastic news, and a nice surprise! 🙂

Congratulations to all at BHHH.

(I didn’t realise it was this close to flying).

Nice to see it was restored with the early type horn balance elevator, 10 inch wheels, and large cannon blisters.

I hope other MKV rebuilds/restorations will follow suit!

Cheers

Paul
