-The sound of victory and freedom β€οΈ-
A low-altitude roar from a true WWII legend! βοΈ π¬π§
Watch closely as this rare Spitfire tears across the airfield in a roaring low pass, showing off its unmistakable silhouette!
This spectacular clip captures the Supermarine Spitfire Mk XIV (RM927) executing a high-speed grass-level pass. Powered by the roaring Rolls-Royce Griffon engine driving a massive 5-bladed propeller, this late-war fighter variant was built for sheer speed and tactical reconnaissance. Hearing that legendary Griffon engine scream as it passes right over the crowd is an unforgettable experience for any warbird fan!
Does any WWII fighter sound better than a Griffon-powered Spitfire tearing past on a low pass?

We rarely give enough credit to the ending of Dunkirk, easily one of the finest conclusions in Nolanβs body of work.

OPC time of the year for the #H145 Crews at @CapitalAir1. Night time, winter weather, plenty of skill testing scenarios & some great training. Thanks to Starspeed Training for a great facility & Alex and Debbie for being fantastic as always. A great training facility for the UK
The pleasure was all ours.. #H145
An exciting end to my #Mortality tour. My jet home from Liverpool wouldnβt start, but a nice man with a helicopter gave me a lift π
