Winston Churchill chatting to Alex Henshaw. Hopefully one day my son will appreciate the man he was named after! (I wasn't allowed Winston)😁

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@MJRodger Yeah I'd be happy with them too 👍

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

Can anybody tell me what these modern looking Spitfire's are? Rubbish pic i know! but they were high up dogfighting over my house. Going so fast i can't see the spinny thing on the front!

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@johnwmrt 👍 so its a Seafire then! I knew it was haha

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@stockotrader You're not kidding!! Is this on a normal/any day? Might have to take a drive over in the summer then.

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@stockotrader I only usually see these type at RIAT so it was good to see over my house.

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@HendonGooner @48FighterWing I went on a spur of the moment idea. And was lucky! The guy stood by me (who I had to ask what the U-2 was) said he was there quite often and usually see's B-52's but had never seen the U-2 go up. Hopefully you will have the same day as me then!

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@HendonGooner @48FighterWing Saw one only once a couple of years ago. You can hear them sometimes but they seem to go in high up and drop pretty sharpish into fairford. If thats possible in a B-52. Got some great pics from the fence there when 2 were returning one day followed by a U-2 Take off!

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@HendonGooner @48FighterWing Especially as I'm in worcester! We dont get to see this very often unless it's coming out of fairford or Brize even then they don't hang around.

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@stockotrader Cheers Mike. I'm rubbish on these jet things!

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@HendonGooner @48FighterWing Nice one, thank you. Just enjoyed a 10 minute show in my back garden.

@classicwarbirds This man might be able to help @DilipMbe ?

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@DilipMbe Thanks Dilip.

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@DilipMbe Would love to attend but unfortunately I will be working. Until about 4 and won't get back in time! Good to see you back again though and will be looking out for more talks for sure. 👍

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

We are back online! Me being me i changed phones and laptop and forgot all my passwords and info!! Twitter would not help in restoring our account. but with a bit of magic and wizardry i typed a few letters and it works again.

[Spitfire @ww2spitfire]

@classicwarbirds Hi Andrew, I really can't find an answer to that i know its said the he flew sometimes over 20 a day but as for all Mk's im going to say that would have to be only Jeffrey quill.
