Getting spoilt in this part of the world now, Mustang (soon to be two), Harvard and various Stearmans – and now a Spitfire to name a few. Who needs Duxford this summer!!!!

We’re lucky in being able to see Mr Hammond’s toys buzzing around the Suffolk skies on occasion,

Didn’t see it, but heard it in North Ipswich and I think later again at about 4pm. Was going to post a request for info but all now becomes clear.
Surprised to hear that it will be based so close to home. Any ideas as to why?

It was “the Grace Spitfire” ML407, it was its official arrival at Bentwaters today where it is now based. I was told she did a display to some school kids on arrival before landing.

Great to see a based aircraft now at Bentwaters.
