Sqn Ldr Paul Day performing his usual polished routine in Maurice Bayliss' Spitfire Tr.9 at a sunny, if chilly, East Kirkby this afternoon.

Enjoy......

Mike...nice (as usual) pictures. Every time I see a two-seater Spit I really get the urge to buy a ride in one. Problem is, I'm too bloody heavy. I'm over the weight limit by about 60 lbs.

Mudge the hefty :roll:

Rob, it only got up to a couple of degrees above freezing today. Nice light for photos, though.

Here are a few of the Lanc taxy run. A wonderful sight and sound, and an illustration that there is a very real alternative to an airframe being either fully airworthy (with the vast cost and, some might argue, risk that that entails) and lying dead in a mausoleum (sorry, museum).
