I saw a spitfire(I think-unless it was a replica!) land at pocklington today(gliding field),I was on my way back from york in the car,having seen at a distance a tucano display in the appaling wx at elvington.Good effort that man for entertaining the crowds in the murk!
Back to the spitfire it was in a very low level circuit and landed there,at a guess it was probably due at the airshow,either way it looked ace:cool:
Any one know anything more?

It's the two-seater glider competition at Pocklington this week, so the Spit may have been a special arrangement - we had the Tiger club and P51 "Big Beautiful Doll" drop in at Challock a couple of years ago for the Vintage Glider Club rally:):):)
