Slim the link was cut short. It should have a space then 340.wmv. Alternatively, you can click on the link the delete everything on the link back but not including "video" and hit enter. You will get to the directory and just click on the "spits2004" link and it will come up.

Thanks for sharing that.  So many Spits in the air at once.  I've never seen a video with that many airborne at once.  Just listen to all those Merlins and Griffons.


I don't care what the Spit haters say, that was a classic and great fighter.

Do they do that every year?  If so, can you get close to plane on the ground for some good pictures?

Thanks
