Vampire with Spitfire

This formation occurred last weekend at the St. Thomas airshow, in Ontario, Canada.

I imagine it has been done in the UK lots of times. Has it ever been done in North America?

It was very good fun, I’ll say that.

A great idea and really well executed. When you hear them both coming towards the camera the sound of the Vampires Goblin is very clear – and then as they pass its the sound of the Merlin that takes over. A lovely combination without either stealing the show.

I did!

Jon Edwards has edited together a short video clip of footage from my helmet-cam and his own video from the ground.

Eric Dumigan took the ground based picture. The one from the Spitfire is obviously mine. On that basis, go ahead.
