The story...

I was sitting reading about the reason why Kimber left (and now I take Kens side), and then I started hearing a puttering engine noise heading my way rather fast. As it flew right over my house I realised the noise was a gaddamn Merlin, so I ran to back door in time to see a Spitfire waggling it's wings...LOL. Roll Eyes

There were no other aircraft in the sky at the time and we have a low overcast here right now so I'd say it was at about 500 feet.

But what was it doing here? I've never seen a Spitfire outside an airshow or museum/collection before. Never mind one waggling his wings over a field outside my house!

Anyway, it was cool and exciting...took my mind off the exam results that are arriving with the post today. Grin

congrats on the results, I got my higher results 8). could have been better though, the only A I got was for Spanish, but the worst was a C in English so it wasn't too bad I supose.
