Wow!

Er that's it really. Nice to see one just pop up out of nowhere. Crap overcast day so I couldn't see the markings, just looked silver and I didn't notice any colour bandings.

Martin Baker have two airworthy ones just down the road at Chalgrove for ejector seat testing so probably one of those.

I was surprised to see a Spitfire flying low over the Dorset coast going Eastwards yesterday afternoon, about 1730hrs so I'm guessing it had been displaying somewhere.

Yes that Spitfire (UKIP Airforce) came over us in East Devon Coast heading west.

Sounds like it’s doing better than our F35s - they have cancelled their arrival at RAF Marham today due to the weather...
