Just got back from the air show, you lucky sons of guns in the U.S.A. Don't know how Jerry Yegar is going to get it back to the States but it certainly won't fit in his suit case. It has less than 3 hours flying time since rebuild and the pilot (Keith Skilling says this has been the best build he has flown, not one hitch. Everything went without any problem). Those Merlins sound soo sweet and the final flyby with a Spitfire, P51 and P40N was brilliant. Having the planes flying at about 200 feet hight and almost 150 feet from the spectator line was a buzz. Took us 2 hours driving from my house to the airfield gates with a trip that would normally take us half an hour. The crowd was huge for our part of the world, even had some Australian commentators here saying nowhere else in the world would the spectators get this close to the action. The word is this is already gone international so probably on You Tube already.
