:D Yes I have been following its progress via Facebook.
Great Stuff.:thumbsup:
Love the shapes of Spitfire, here they are even nicer with plain polished aluminium surface. Do you know Marcel Dessault's rule? "If it looks good, it flies well." He must saw a Spitfire :)
I covered the takeoff. Did anyone get to see the Spit in its travels ?

generally, im not a fan of warbirds in civilian colors, but that spit looks smart!
There is much more about the Silver Spitfire on the Daily Mail website. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art..._campaign=1490
