S/L C Junior DFC, BFD, SOL, will be there. The temptation to take a 91 Squadron Spit V over Dieppe is too tempting. I’m hoping it gives me the itch to get back in AH for a bit

Dan you best be lead............the last time I got into a spitfire I thought I was still in a Jug. I blacked out more in the spit then I did after a hard nights drinking in the 70s'.
In my comments I respectfully noted that I dint want to CO. So that makes at least two of us codgers flying the Spit V. Correction ONE flying the Spit V. last I remember it was a lousy gun platform.
What did I get myself into here????? :D

Gents sorry to say I have to bow out. Having back problems at this time from a not to graceful fall. Sitting in one position lasts for 15 mins. to a half hour at most.
By all means fill my position.
If things improve I'll walk on.
I've missed the last two target for today frames because of this.
Thanks for your time Hajo
