The show started with a spitfire being flown in formation with an RAF Typhoon, and during the course of the disply (whilst I was there...had to leave early) we saw a WW2 senario with mock dogfights between Spitfires and the Buchon. Also present in terms of WW2 era aircraft were the BBMF (a seperate thread) and Sally B being accompanied by P51 Ferocious Frankie!

Nice to see the Spitfire/Typhoon combo. Coningsby did a similar thing with a Spitfire XIX/Tornado F2 when that came into service in 1985/6 season. Smiley

I agree, either keep the Messerschmitt, or go completely spitfire, but please dont mix the two Wink

No, sorry.

A Bf-109 is worthless without a good DB-601/3/5

Would you moan if someone fitted a DB-603 into a Spit for the airforce of....whereever....buy it back 30 years later and paint and sold it to the public it as a RAF aircraft?

I bet you would...
