They're fantastic, that looks like Stanford Tuck peering through the plexiglass in shot no.2!

Re: Spitfire and Hurricane - From the air
Cheers guys
Was really lucky to get the two, was only meant to have the Spitfire but as they had to cancel the original date, got upgraded and got the Hurricane too. Yes there will be some more, but haven't got time at the moment...far too much work.
Also have just looked at this on another computer and there looks to be a strong green tint over the images, and look rather soft, whereas didn't get this on the screen I processed them on. Anyone else getting this?

Re: Spitfire and Hurricane - From the air
Excellent group of pictures, you were lucky to get the two aircraft. As a trustee of the Battle of Britain Memorial, I quite often go down when 'Action Stations' are operating, in order to land on the helicopters at the site and help with the guided tour round the Memorial, however, as the 'chase plane' was fixed wing I was not required. Would you by any chance have taken any pictures of the Memorial site as you flew over. Thank you.

Yes I noticed it too,
I fiddled about with it in PS and literally 30 seconds the hue is gone and the image improved imo
