Are we absolutely certain that a Spitfire hasn’t made a low pass over Bremgarten around 65 years ago?

Hi
I could be wrong, but think it opened in the 60’s ?
cheers

Not the best in German.

Have they bought it?

The “google” translation of the second (relevant) part:

“Breaking news, the Second

Increase in Max Alpha Aviation Ltd!

We get a Spitfire !!!!!!

The Spitfire, one of the most legendary aircraft in the world, beautiful, high-perfomance, just a plane of the “Big Five”, which in the same breath as Messerschmitt Bf109, Focke Wulf Fw 190, P-51 Mustang and Chance Vought Corsair is called!

Now it has come true, the Supermarine Mk VIIIc Spifire G BKMI comes to Max Alpha Aviation Ltd. to Bremgarten. We are very proud of this achievement and look forward to the first low-pass over Bremgarten airfield !!!!! “

That’s weird.

I looked at a photo of ‘154 yesterday and something told me it was going overseas….

Still, it’ll go beautifully with the Buchon and ‘190 they now have…

Quite the collection they have at Bremgarten! Great to see the European warbird scene thriving (if that’s the right word – I suppose, relatively speaking, it could be argued so) with aircraft being bought from overseas and being sold within the continent.

So maybe that one will also stay in Europe.
