    Lovely stuff. Is it an original rebuild or a new build and is it going back to Australia? There’s a video on You Tube of the first flight of one of the UK built replicas which talks about the handling. Nice to see the Bristol 170 in the background of the second picture. Is it a ground runner?

    Thanks Tangmere. Sounds about right.

    Oh yes. Some very nice formation work there. Any idea what the camera aircraft was?

    It’s not April the First is it?

    Thanks JGS, that would make sense.

    Thanks for your vote of confidence DR but I can only guess that the “mod” was done at Clacton to improve the view for the rear seat guests for the “Wing to Wing with a Spitfire” events. I’ll check and report back.

    Just out of interest (I’m not too up to date on military stuff), why didn’t the Hurricane get supplied to the RAAF?

    Thanks John. I’ll let my chums know, hopefully they’ll have seen the article.

    Not sure of the subtleties here John. Had Camit taken over production of the Jabiru engines completely or do Jabiru still make them as well? I have a Lycoming in the Wonderplane but there are two Jabirus in the hangar who may need the information.

    Looks like an excellent show and congratulations on the photographs. The Botswana Defence Force looks as though it has a pretty good selection of aircraft. Where is the P-51 Mustang based?

    A nice set. I particularly like the shot of the three Chiltons in formation.

    If you look on G-INFO, at least 3 of them are still registered with current C of As.

    Thank you. Bit of a change from the Pitts but I guess ML 407 helps?

    Excellent news. Who was driving?
