The pilot was Ray Hanna I believe, something of a legend on the airshow circuit. He used to fly with the Red Arrows way on back, but now he's probably the worlds best spitfire pilot. His son Mark also flew spitfires, but I heard he was killed at a display a few years back.

Anyone want some more vid like that? There are two based less than a mile from my house. One regularly practices stunts actually over my house. B|

They're based at the Rolls Royce testing ground/airfield about a mile away right next to where concord's resting up. Never really paid much attention to it's designation but I think it's a mkIX supermarine (or at least a late designation anyway) with overlord markings.

The other's definately a MkIII but you only ever see that taking off and buggering off as opposed to doing aerobatics.
