Today our Spitfire, ML407 shot down a JU88 and became accredited for shooting the first enemy aircraft on D-Day over Normandy Beachhead.

@MailOnline Probably want to say that you are using a stock photo…. That is not the aircraft in question you are using.

Hawker Tempest II MW763 G-TEMT

First roll out of G-TEMT, owned by Anglia Aircraft Restorations, coming to the end of restoration and now only waiting for completion of the Bristol Centaurus VI engine.

The scheme is that of 33 Sqdn as worn in Malaya in the 1950’s

Carolyn Grace
1/The relentless passion, drive and determination Carolyn has given to historic aviation and the continued operation of ML407 to ensure the lasting memory of her husband, Nick Grace and of all those that fought, served & lost their lives

2/ to protect our country and others is truly remarkable.
Carolyn is an absolute inspiration to women, men & humans worldwide. It is a story that cannot not be done much justice in a social media post however,

That feeling of heading toward some kind of normality.

We are really looking forward to welcoming our customers new and old in the not too distant future.

#warbirdwednesday. The mighty "two-chon" as it is affectionately known to the team at Sywell.

This is just about as close as you can get to experience being the adversary.
