Photo Recon Spit over Berlin And later wheels up landing

Here is a link to a short video on Youtube well worth watching.  Different Spit for anyone wanting to do one that is out of the ordinary.......Blue with US markings.  Were the British Mk XI version based on the Mk IX.

Thanks for the link.  Saw this a while ago but couldn't remember where.  I'll  save it this time.  Great film.

Not to mention he still has a piece of the wooden prop after all those years.  (Clip was done about 10 years ago).  Even said he flew her again after they replaced the prop and radiators.
