WELL WORTH LOOKING AT THIS LINK. Lots of detail about the aircraft. In my opinion one of the better presentations of info on current websites.MRTT wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2019 2:14 pmWonderful line up once again, with a final update due this week:

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow 2019- 21st & 22nd September
Disappointing to loose the P51 and the HAC Fury but the editions certainly make up for it.
Well... the more Spitfires the better and RN201 will be a new one for me... show line up looking very good.
Looking forward to Saturday.

Indeed, about time too!
Unlikely Sharkmouth will fly, visible damage to the wing, apparently.

Crosswind was more than expected.
Sharkmouth flew 3 maybe 4 times today.
See you tomorrow.

Anyone able to confirm if the RAF Lakenheath crews are there today or not?
Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow 2019- 21st & 22nd September
Sorry for late reply... can't say about today but yesterday the 492nd guys were there and one other stall selling Lakenheath sqn items but this stall wasn't manned by the crews.
Hope it helps.

Re: Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow 2019- 21st & 22nd September
No worries, they are there today. Sadly I'm not there but got a family member who is and trying to find them for me.
Now inside the American Museum as it's chucking it down.
