Can I just say a very very big UNLUCKY to all the Spitfire fans after the legendary P51 romped home as the all time best fighter aircraft on Channel 5 this evening. 😀 😀 😀

Some of those wittering on were obviously filmed at Duxford however.
And the RAF Harriers AT Wittering…..

Yep, Tony Harper in his old GR.3, that Dr Who lookalike journalist, and the ubiquitous Bruce Dickinson were all filmed at DX.

Was this programme made in the States by any chance?
Made by a Canadian company, hence the Hornet rather than the Eagle or Falcon, and why they had a RCAF Spit pilot rather than a British one. I’m surprised they didn’t squeeze a CF-100 in there somewhere.

I only saw the top 5 and there was an F18 and MiG 21 in there… They were jets I believe.

I take it that it was a program about avgas burners? Otherwise I guess the F-15 might
possibly had been in the running!
