Pleasure was all mine Jim. My first thought was to get some nice shots for you.
This aircraft is a true piece of art in motion. The lines scream fluid motion. If anyone were to ask me what the British had built right I would immediately say the Spitfire. What an incredible machine. The owner/pilot Jim Beasley is not afraid to open her up either. His on the deck balls out pass is a sight/sound/feeling to experience. It climbs like a bat out of hell! It leaves nothing to the imagination that the Hun would run from this warbird. I was also astonished to see that the control surfaces are in fact canvas. Take a close look at the tail.
What a gorgeous aircraft. For me the Spit is on the same level of cool/graceful scale as the P-40. Glad you enjoyed them!
