Spitfire over Broadstairs this afternoon

Post by broadstairs »

We had a Spitfire with invasion stripes fly south over Viking Bay Broadstairs late afternoon today. Wondered if anyone else saw it and knows which one it was, sadly did not have a camera handy. Thought it might have been the Kent Spitfire but I gather it no longer has invasion stripes.

more likely MJ627 which is based at Biggin Hill with the kent spitfire but has invasion stripes. Also its flies a lot more regularly than the other spitfires at Biggin as it does experience flights.

I'm pretty sure it was a single seater....
