It's the real thing

With the 2018 RAF100 celebrations now in full swing, here's a glimpse back to it's origin days with the Shuttleworth Collection's wonderful old WWI Bristol Fighter F.2B D8096 catching the afternoon light whilst performing at the 2015 Old Warden Autumn Airshow

 

I first saw this remarkable old Fighter perform 52 years ago at the 1966 SBAC Farnborough Airshow.

At that time she was probably already 50 years old!
