I don't think I've ever seen a Spitfire from those angles. Thanks for that, Brian. :thumbsup:

Very cool video, it looks like they stopped the engine before landing and the prop started to spin backwards, but that may just have been an illusion caused by fast shutter speeds.

Should just be the shutter speed as he reduces RPM, a windmilling prop still spins the same way.
