    What backup control systems do Spitfires and other warbirds have?
    As far as i can tell they’re all the same when plummeting out of control.

    Found out this morning that G-SUSY has a new owner and will be based at Sywell for the foreseeable future.

    Was it not 57 OTU that AR213 flew with, with the stripey cowling?

    At the end of the day it’s all down to money, if the guys left at the likes of TFC and OFMC can afford to carry on operating them then they will continue. Personally i think OFMC will continue as long as Breitling carry on sponsoring them and they do the occasional movie, as OFMC’s fleet earn a living. TFC is privately owned and rarely flown, therefore it would be down to Nick and anyone else financially connected to them, to keep going. I believe once Stephen passes on we’ll probably only see half the collection fly one year the other half the next.
    Hopefully i’m wrong.

    Last i knew was that it has been G-registered and has been restored back to full airworthiness and was up for sale as it was advertised in Pilot Magazine for awhile but i have not seen any adverts or heard whether it’s been sold.
    It’s one of the most immaculate aircraft i’ve seen with full modern cockpit.
