Hi there my friends...I was looking through Youtube and came across this video, and thinking of the anniversary of Battle of Britain this should give you a rough idea of the sight and sounds of what it must have been like back then... these aircraft certainly bought goosbumps to this old timer that's for sure...Enjoy!!

Jonny's vid is not the 75th flypast as its dated Jan and only has Spit's though could have been a pre-curser for the 75th to also include Hurricane's

Video of the 75th hardets day prep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcgYeR4wKnM

This clip indicates 17 Spitfire, 5 Hurricane and 1 Mustang

I wish I could have been there to witness it.The Spitfire is my all time favourite
aircraft, makes me proud to be be British.

I won't forget though all the crews from all over the world who fought with us in other aircraft,all doing a superb job!

Regards.

Alan
