Spitfire and Mustang at Boscombe Down

Post by seaxp924vixen » Thu Sep 23, 2021 7:39 pm

This may come as a surprise but yesterday 22.09.21 there was a Mustang 413779 parked near the 23/05 taxiway which was today joined by a Spitfire with 5 bladed propellor so a Mk 19 probably. which had a vehicle parked next to it obscuring the serial. Does anyone have any idea what this might have been?

Spit was PS853/G-RRGN. Both operated by Rolls Royce.

They've been around for the last week or so. Not seen everyday, but when flying one is in formation with an Extra 300.
