Thanks G-ORDY. Wow, three surviving Spitfires he flew. Neat. Of course MK732 flew alongside ML407, in which Johnny flew over the Normandy beaches during the D Day 50th celebrations in 1994, as both were involved in that original shooting down of the Ju88’s.

I doubt there are many other pilots left who have three surviving WWII fighters. Trainers maybe, but not fighters? When I say ‘left’, I know Johnny is no longer with us sadly.
