Hi,
I Saw what looked like a mustang and a griffon spit with invasion stripes coming back from the direction of woodvale airfield in merseyside flying over our house in ormskirk nr southport on May 19th, what were they doing there if they were, was it a commemoration of the thum flight ? Any info would be much appreciated,
Regards:)

eddywinch………Quite correct . It was a celebration of THUM flight and although the event didn’t get the 3 Spits hoped for ( due bad weather) it was blessed by Rob Davies in Big Beautiful Doll from Woodchurch. His appearance related to the fact that 611 squad had P51’s at sometime in their career. Photo was in the Visiter the following week if you can locate a copy.
