I’d hate to see a Reno racer brought over here. All the whining from the purists and anoraks about butchering historic aircraft, crashing them, etc etc, would drown out the sound of the Griffon.

I am sure it would be different if it were one of the classic modified corsairs from way back! However if the chance arose would the CAA allow such heavily modified aircraft to fly here?
Personally, I would absolutely love to see a three ship tail chase (?) of Reno unlimiteds at flying legends. I believe that Reno is to warbirds what Bonneville salt flats are to motoring.
