Spitfire at Compton Abbas Airfield // Spitfire Weekend in Dorset (June 2023)

“Like the Spitfire it was immensely strong: a pilot had no need to fear the danger of pulling the wings off, no matter how desperate the situation became.” -Douglas Bader

Just how lucky are we to have a philanthropist like Guy, with a love of aviation, who is able to ensure that the historic Compton Abbas airfield stays open…..and then caps it all of with a weekend featuring the most beautiful aeroplane ever designed/built. Thank you 👌👏

Possibly the most beautiful airplane ever built. Thank you for sharing! We don't get much of a chance to see one fight here in the US.
