Recently my Spitfire spotting has got almost boring, 'cos they've been filming for the film "Dunkirk" near us (using a 1944 Griffon engined Spitfire
)
However I was leaving the office last week, and just starting to cross the road and heard a Merlin, looked up ad I'm sure it was a Hurricane, which then proceeded to do a victory roll, and carried on. I nearly collided with the central refuge of the crossing, as I was looking up, not forward...
I just wish the bloody Chinooks were a bit more unusual, I hate the bloody racket they make, like a Harley Davidson in the sky. Apart from the extensive MOD usage of them around us, the servicing place is just up the road a bit.
