And possibly the same Spitfire coming from the north doing a shallow turn over Twyford. Looked nice in the low sun.

German Air Force Transall just droned eastwards over Croydon apparently out of Bristol; nice to hear a pair of Tynes even if I couldn't see it... just enough cloud and a "milky" sky...

Thursday 8th November, 14.40 to 14.45 pm, Hawker Hunter over area north of Ely, Cambridgeshire and south of Wisbech . Gentle aerobatic movements and general handling flying. I know there is one at North Weald that is being made ready to fly but could not see enough detail to see if was that one. Lovely sight and sound!

About 2pm this afternoon a silver Harvard with yellow underwings did three passes over St Edwards School, Oxford. Given that St Ed's old boys included Bader, Warburton and Gibson, and one of the masters was on the RAF selection board which supposedly led to a startling number of the officer pilots of the BoB being St Edwards old boys, I presume it was part of theuir remebrance commemoration.

I saw a Spitfire flying over Midhurst at 15.00 today, it was a late model with a white spinner.
