That is fantastic!! What a great response filled with all the right information. Thank you very much. I will have to take a few minutes to browse through all of the web sites but they all look very good.
As for the Spitfire, what I would really like to know if there are any that are still flying? I imagine that the Spits in the museums will all be on static display. What would actually get me going is to hear one, especially when it is flying. I can't imagine what it must sound like. Maybe just the opportunity to speak with someone who flies one, or flew one. Maybe I could even get a ride!?!? ......OK, back to reality, but I really do not know what options exist??? But if any chance to be "up close and personal" with a Spit did exist I would be willing to do almost anything for that thrill of a lifetime.
Anyhow, looking forward to the responses.
Again, thanks a lot!!
