VE Day 75 spitfire Flypast East Grinstead – Boultbee's Spitfire TR Mk.IX, SM520, G-ILDA

Most of us love the sight and sound of a Spitfire. This really lifted my spirits on VE Day yesterday. Hopefully it’ll lift yours today too?

Lovely to see BUT playing devils advocate here , i thought they were stopped by the DOT from Capt Tom Moores 100th birthday flypast as it wasn’t “essential ” .

Trumper,

I suspect the plan by the BHHH crew stepped on the toes of the of the Government, who it seems had ‘planned’ an official flypast as a ‘surprise’, all along!

Anyway, good to see the a Spitfire out and about, and thanks for the video Steve.

Cheers

Paul
