Happy (or just delirious) Dad with tolerant family, filling in odd spare moments & dreaming of Spitfires. Ramblings are my own, reposts aren’t.
Some 'Sally B' B17 starting action.....

It’s simply the best WW2 warbirds weekend of the year.
Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow.
You know what you have to do

Unbelievably/worryingly happy to come across extended unused Battle of Britain film footage at the superb RAF Museum Hendon.
My full Battle of Britain nerdiness confirmed.

You know it's almost Duxford Battle of Britain airshow weekend when you're watching the weather app hourly.
Last year's flypast was great BUT 15 Spitfires and 8 Hurricanes to be flying this weekend.
I may need to lie down in a darkened room.

Better undoubtedly but then there was also a certain other Merlin powered twin....

I do prefer this upgrade to the normal morning alarm.
No snooze facility though.
