A Breezy Day At The Birling Gap

[poliphilo]

A Spitfire made a couple of passes overhead, tipped a wing, did a complete roll. I imagine it was the same Spitfire that regularly flies over the farm- because how many can there be that are still flying?

Spitfires and the white cliffs- such an icon of Englishness, such a cliche- gets me every time.

It may well be the two seater trainer that takes people up for a lot of money.

Very likely.

I think it's so neat that you have a locally flying Spitfire.

We see it regularly. And when we hear the engine I run outside to see if I can spot it.

That would be a treat for me to see a Spitfire in the air.

It's such a good-looking plane.
