Whoop! And don't worry Colin, I won't need to run through any briefs, I prefer my own, ideally secured around my waist.

Okay chaps, who's up for a 2025 replay of Tom's superb mission? The closest Sunday to the anniversary is 16th February. @DD_Fenrir are you happy to do the full discord brief etc again? I suspect we'd need to open up to the community again for the sake of numbers. You can tell I'm reading about the Mosquito at the moment, I'm chomping at the bit for some low-level wooden wonder action!

USAF Heritage flight whoop! Always amazes me how tiny the viper is, also how slippery it is. Had to keep the airbrakes extended almost continuously, it just kept wanting to race away with the smallest amount of thrust adjustments.

Exceptional work Colin, thank you. Looking forward to this!

Thanks Rog!

Holding out hope that Legends might make a return, but I'd say it's unlikely as usually announced by now and there's still the question of location. Unfortunately, Sywell announced yesterday that this year's show will remain a one off and will stand as a legacy of the late Richard Grace, which is totally understandable as he was the driving force. But, it's also a damn shame, it was a fantastic show and a worthy successor to Legends. So, realistically that leaves us with the two main players, RIAT and one of the Duxford shows.

WOW

wahwohweewah

Quite! I recall reading about 210mph on the ASI, with approx. 15-20' flaps flying against the power. Looks like I could have gotten a few feet closer too, darn it. 😁

Happy belated B-day FT!

Outstanding sir!

Darn it that looks goooooood

What a sight. Beautfiul!

I set myself the challenge yesterday to land on the Mall in a Spitfire and taxi up to Buck house for a bit of sightseeing. (Normandy Map) It was a challenge indeed, the most difficult part being keeping the bugger straight on the roll out and not clipping a wingtip on the walls! Excuse the dodgy VR screenshots!
