Attacker

Does anyone know of any Attackers in existence other than the Yeovilton aircraft? Pakistan?

Spitfire Formations

I think you might get the definitive answer and some very nice pictures from Jeanne Frazer, now Display Director at Duxford who organized all of the recent Spitfire fly pasts. She has a beautiful picture displayed in her home of the largest of the Balboas just crossing the Channel taken by John Dibbs from above an to the right. It is also autographed by all the participants.

Andover

Isn’t there one for sale on one of the disposal sites? Think it might be this one.

Whirlwind?

Excellent link.

What was the story with the Whirlwind? Why was it so unsuccessful and/or unheralded? Or was it?

Un-folding

Thanks for that Mk12!

😉

Seafire

Not the Seafire, which I hear is making its debut at Shuttleworth next weekend.

Credits

Tim Manna has asked me to pass along the following credits and thanks to Pete Walker, Dave Horsfield, Phil Evinden, Alan Allen, and Bob Furgeson. Yes, there were many people involved along the way, and lots of well dones handed out, but in the end, the Seafire has flown because these folks put their hearts into it over the last five years. Without them, it would most likely be another project still in the making. Well done guys and many thanks.
