In celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Spitfire BBC2 are running a number of programmes this afternoon and evening starting with:

First of the Few at 1350.

James May's Airfix Spitfire at 1745

Spitfire Women at 1845

Spitfire: Britain's Flying Past at 2045

First Light at 2230

While I remember, here's a shot I grabbed at the end of the Revival Meeting , Carolyn Grace and Lord March running in for a barrel roll over the field.

Thanks Allan :)
Watched them building the 1:1 scale 'Airfix' Spitfire whilst having my dinner - great :agree:
It wasn't at Cosford when we visited last year. Apparently it was away being repaired after its wings had drooped :doh: but has since returned.
The same problem they had when building it.
Cheers
