It almost looks as though ‘434 has bagged herself another kill….! :diablo:

There’s a very short clip on the BBC website http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/7478123.stm.

Oh yes there are!…(see also the posting from Mackerel in the ‘Spotted’ thread).
Seems to be for a forthcoming TV prog involving MH434 up against one of the Red Bull air race ‘Extras’.
Pylon erected at Sandown airport, mucho air to air stuff with heli-telly equipped choppers, around the island, over the Needles etc.
All will be revealed in due course no doubt.

Hi all , Thanks Chumpy for putting newforest right. Members of this forum do exist on the Isle of Wight ! !
Paul Bonhomme was in MH434 & Nigel Lamb in the extra. The program being made had something to do with schnider ( ! ) air races. I’m sure will become apparent .

Paul Bonhomme and Nigel Lamb were the pilots I believe.

At a guess it would have been Nigel Lamb who was in the MX-2 (or MX-S?) and he, of course, is involved with OFMC, operators of MH434. BTW I have an MR-2 in the garage but I wish it was an MX-2.

Coming out of Cowes in a sailing boat on a beautiful June morning, what could be better?
Well, a Merlin engined Spitfire circling overhead over a dozen times, for a start!
The only slight fly in the ointment was the buzz-saw noise of the tiny racer thingamy tucked in behind the Spit’s wing, making far more racket than its size warranted, and drowning out the sound of R-R.
Thankfully, they did split up for the last few passes.
Perfect.

Apologies to ‘Spotted Thread’ and Mackerel! Yes, a race between the Spitfire and a MR 2 and the winner was the larger plane, of course!:)
