Great video Rob!! In every way...very entertaining as well as educational in a couple of ways! I'm now off to research P8332 that's in my own backyard (sort of...;)) as I've seen her three times without really paying any attention to her :oops:
The first time was in the very early '80s before they built the elaborate new building and it was actually far cooler for me because all the airplanes were in a huge hangar with very few people walking around and no ropes. I'm sure I could have sat in it :mrgreen:

Cheers,
Rob

Many thanks Rob and I hope you finally get to sit in P8332! Just tell them you are a real warbird pilot so nothing to worry about here..........professional in the house!

Really enjoyed this one!!! The air to air view of the Spitfires is stunning! I presume that was true earth Britain?
Nicely shot and a good watch to the end.





One small correction to the history (I'm TOO pedantic to let it go here, not pedantic enough to post it on youtube ;) ), the hand pump undercarriage also included the emergency blow down bottle, right from the start.
It wasn't added at the same time as the engine powered pump.

Many thanks Darryl, yes that was True Earth. Looks a lot better in v5 with the EA on.
Thanks for the correction chief!
