While we all love the Spit we should remember that March 5th is also the anniversary of other significant events:
5 Mar 1912 – First use of an airship for military means (Italian recce mission over Turkey)
5 Mar 1943 – First flight of the Gloster Meteor
5 Mar 1962 – Mrs Baloffski’s eldest boy was born!
Yes, you’re right. Still think that the first flight of K5054 is the most significant of this list 😀
