Very artsy video of Spitfire MH 434 flown by the late great Mark Hanna. Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TK6uNQoBAGY&feature=related

Sure shows off the great turning radius of the Spit!

My heart'll always be with the bent wing bird, but I have to admit that I just like them all. We're fortunate to have a guy like Mr. Allen with similar interests and deep pockets. If I had the money, I'd probably have a similar museum to Flying Heritage...some day. Till then, I'll just have to keep my spirits airborne through Youtube videos and airshows. RIP, Mr. Hanna.

I agree with you on liking them all. I was just poking a little fun at the Mighty Merlin.

Thanks for posting the video.
