is F-AZRO the ex Anthony Hutton one?
I believe that one is in New Zealand, registered ZK-ZRO
Any information on where the Hurricane from the BoB hall will end up?
Surprised it was not given to the BBMF for training new pilots
Snafu, it’s invisible so you would not see it.
Out of interest, who flew the Spitfire?
Modern teaching, does not help. I remember going to a parents evening and asking the English teacher why she had only underlined one misspelling of a word when there were five wrong spellings of the same word, her reply was that she knew what was meant. That’s a big difference to the sixties when I remember having to write the correct spelling one hundred times when I made a mistake.
North Weald?
And what percentage – if I may ask – of the UK voting population is actually involved in going to, officiating at, and/or flying/maintaining/paying-for airshows? Miniscule is the answer. There is NOT “a very significant industry”. Therefore, it is a minority sport. So there is no overweening need to keep any of them in existence. Would save an awful lot of needlessly spent money. One could, possibly, exempt RIAT and Farnborough? They are, after all, not airshows but corporate bunfests where manufacturers and/or bankers try to flog NEW aircraft, as opposed to displaying OLD aircraft. And I speak as one who did a significant number of the very early IATs at Greenham (working 18-20 hr days/nights!).
HTH – but I know it won’t because minds that are already made up are not susceptible to reality!

Are you on the right forum?
Re, Propstrikes photo is the area with the palm trees a film set, if so any idea which film?
Nice pictures, David, especially the first two of the Yak.
If they looked a few yards/metres further over towards the M11 they would find Spitfires, ,without digging.
