Wonderful news! Congratulations to everyone involved in this very worthy project over the years!
“Do they have a policy of using unusual historic types for publicity reasons?” – one could say they do: http://www.hangar-7.com/en/the-flying-bulls/aircraft/
Hear hear, how wonderful to see these colours on a flying Spitfire!
It’s nice to see The Shark P-51D out and about again! Did it fly during the show?
It worked that time, Elmdon Boy. A very atmospheric image! Thanks for sharing.
TT – if that’s the worthless wooden one, it looks pretty nice to me!
I’d never heard of the smuggling attempt. They’ve done a great job and it seems fitting it remains in Finland.
A Maryland surfaced somewhere, Classic Wings had a photo in March 2015 and Aeroplane Monthly followed a month or two later.
As someone said on Facebook: tell them you saw two Hurricanes and a Dornier over England today and they won’t believe you!
As Daz said, more of the wonderful same quality! These updates are always a treat for the eyes.
^ seconded. An amazing project whose result will be well worth the wait!
Excellent news!
Brilliant update Blue, it does the heart good to see all that rot being taken care of! And it’s a big relief to hear the legs appear okay.
Excellent news. A story that deserves to be told!
My excuse for not celebrating the news here is the same as it is for any other forum or outlet: I didn’t know there was news to celebrate! Excellent news.
