Hi All, BigGrin

I paid a visit to Duxford yesterday(D-Day Airshow) and spent some time talking to some of the guys from "Flying Legends".

What a great bunch and very helpful.

They have an air display on at Duxford on the 12/13 July this year.

"Flying Legends"

Whilst having a chat, went into the "If you don`t ask, you don`t get" mode and they come up trumps. Cool

Ask`d them about the spitfire seat and without hesitation was taken behind the public barriers and given an open offer to take whatever pics I needed.

By chance, their Spitfire is in rebuild status at the moment and the seat was out of the plane. So, off came the covers and here`s the result.







Fair chance, as long as I`m not working that weekend, that a return visit will be in order.Blink

Cheers Spencer, BigGrin

A bit of a triple whammy yesterday.

The worst of the weather held off for the air show.
