Nice vid,the display really showed the Spits lovely lines well. As for commentators, I wish they would understand we don’t really need them to tell us how nice the planes sound, just some historical info and a bit about the pilot then shut up.
As a previous poster said, after a couple of winters, the attention of the ariel wildlife and the pollution and atmospheric muck (tech term) she won’t stay white for long. They will need to have a stringent cleaning/consevation plan in place, havn’t seen one mentioned yet. 20 mill would get her flying rather than rotting. BA of course sponsor (sponsored?) the wheel, a fine example of German engineering. Having said that, if BA get too involved she will probably get lost on the way or end up in Singapore.
Three quarters of a century! Its fantastic how this plane still captures the imagination, so many still flying and many on the way, I wonder how many will still be flying in another 75 years.
