Round 'n' round in circles.........
Who else witnessed the sole Spitfire display this afternoon above the Abbey Stadiumarea in Redditch .

Lasted about 20 minutes, right above our house as well.

We had just sat down for lunch, and we heard that very distinctive engine, I said to the kids that "that sounds just like a Spitfire".

Then a few moments later it roared over the roof of the house, really low too. Simply feckin awesome....:bounce1:bounce1:bounce1:bounce1 :bow

Loop the loops, a few victory rolls, nose dives and quite a few "very" low fly bys, in fact quite surprised that they had permission to fly that low to be honest.

Then with a wave of the wings, of it flew.....what a great sight. :clap
 
I watched one from a house in monmouth that I was lucky enough to be working on the day of the monmouth show


fabulous

although it did seem a little quaint after watching the euro fighter being put through its paces at the back of my house..... awesome
