    On closer inspection it looks like it has a fixed under cart too. Can’t see it being a flyer as the wheels look permanently fixed.

    You could also try the NRA at Bisley they may be able to point you in the right direction.

    Imagine if they had managed that and also do the same with MH434.

    I think MH434 should stay in her present colours as a tribute to Ray Hanna.

    Would be nice to see a ‘Heinkel’ inthe air again though

    BBMF Spit and Hurricane over the house in Gosport flew out towards the Isle of Wight then landed at Daedalus about 1945hrs.

    Martin

    My apologies they werent BBMF but a pair of Spits from DX one being flown by John Romain, they did an excellent display over the Royal Hospital Haslar for the Last Night of the Proms and Battle of Britain concert.
