Spitfire Mk IX 3W-17 in historic flypast in Netherlands

I did pop over to “modern” but…well just but

Surely history making historic flypast including Spitfire MKIX 3W-17 (at 3.26) oh and a couple of other aircraft but not a B!!!!!

A bit about MK732 although not up to date.

Thanks Archer for spotting my typo good job it is in the body and not the title so I am able to correct it.
Not a “modern” man myself but just interesting to see that the Netherlands are able to put on a display and it is starting to look iffy about an appearance of an F35B at RIAT. Unless somebody knows better that is.

Always liked that Spit’s colour scheme!

The Spit is actually a Mk.IX, MK732. Nice footage indeed!
