Have to agree with Daz, 2 & 5 definitely the favourites but all very good.

Lovely pics, cheers for showing us. It,s my favourite marque of spit, quite possibly the best looking.

Thanks

I dunno what it is, but there’s something about that colour scheme that I really, really like! The second and fifth pictures show it off rather well, but I just cannot put my finger on what I like about it! :p

We are used to see Spits that are darker than the surrounding sky. This one is brighter. The top part of the fuselage has a different shade than the rest. Gives an impression of a low back.

Agree with Daz. 🙂

Stunning shots and interesting to see the heat haze effect from the radiators in the last picture.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen or at least noticed that before!

Cheers
