Spitfire over Stour Estuary.

At 1057 this morning saw a Spitfire flying approximately W along the Stour Estuary,does anyone have any idea of this aircrafts identity and destination ? It did cross my mind it might be the Grace Spitfire flying out of Bentwaters but I didn’t see a second cockpit.Thanks in advance.

Well said Sopwith, welcome to the forums Tomr.

Rolls Royce have been out training in the Mk19 down at Kemble today and yesterday, but the sightings are probably a bit out of the way for them.

A lot of people refer to aerobatics as acrobatics, we all know what he means, give the guy a break, it’s his first post.

I saw that over the stour doing acrobatics in May too and waved. He flew round me for five mins and yes one cockpit. Saw the same one again yesterday 20th August over the Stour.
