Polish Fitters - Part Two

Post by Pauld339 » Sat May 31, 2025 6:52 am

Thanks for the reactions to my last post. A few more fitters attached below. A bit heavy on the "head on" angle, which I am rather fond of!

There's plenty more if you're interested.

Excellent set Paul, hard to pick a favourite! What was the number on the single seater out of interest, 8309?

Any idea how many are still operational?

8309 yes.

I saw 4 fly but apparently circa 8 are still operational.
