Spitfire Anniversary
Today marks 80 years since the first historic flight of this iconic plane around Southampton Water. The sound is no longer the same but the shape is certainly recognisable to most people. There should be at least one flight today around the original route to mark the occasion but the weather won't be good so they did this extra flight yesterday under blue skies just in case. I took this from the Itchen Bridge but the plane was still too high for my lens, just wanted to mark the occasion.
