TE311 Take to the Skies

Taking to the Lincolnshire skies the Clip wing spitfire MkXVI TE311

 

Spitfire TE311 is a low-back/bubble-canopy Mk XVI with ‘clipped’ wingtips. Some 58 years after it last flew, TE311 will be back in the air in 2012, having undergone a painstaking re-build to flying condition by BBMF technicians.
