Loved the Ready For Action postcard. Is the aircraft in the background a Yak 18T by any chance?

Someone else might disagree, but im certain it is Mike.

I agree with John – very nice, and one of my favourite flying Spits out of all of ’em!

Dean,

That has to be one of the nicest most un-cluttered and un-fussy Spitfire shots I have seen in a long time, have you thought about changing it to B&W for that extra nostalgic touch.

Regards,

John.

Many thanks John, i will have a go at B&W and see how it fairs.
