Worth watching this ‘Nationwide’ clip from 40 years ago, some of you will recognise the chap with the dashing sideburns.

No No, you got it wrong Trolly Aux, it was Peter Arnold that had the Seafire not Peter Wyngarde.:rolleyes:

Damn! I thought my Airfix Seafire didn’t look quite right! It seems the prop should have six blades!
Great clip though, and Sue Lawley looked pretty hot back in the day!

He could have at least put a shirt on….. Flowered and lurid springs to mine, mismatched with an equally flowered and lurid Kipper Tie.. 😀

To the best of my knowledge the original is still in the sea, just off the West Sussex coast.
Shot down by a Stuka …

Those where the days when you could build a Spitfire on front drive. Don’t happen any more.

Some classic taildraggers are still built on drives 🙂
