See it flying over couple of times a year, along with Spitfires and Hurricanes(most weeks), I keep meaning to enquire where they are flying to, Duxford is to NE of us, so would be beginning/end of flight, but they are heading/returning from Aylesbury direction.
Only one more bad shot.Have you any pics with it's reg # Trev is it G-PYBA if so built Oct 43 and only 10 left airworthy. Not many ops to get on one of those.
There is only one airworthy in UK
It's def "miss pick up" if you look closely at the nose art in your original pic TrevOnly one more bad shot.
What i do know is it was fitted with more powerfull engines from the standard ones.
