Three Spitfires return to RAF Woodvale

Don't forget three Spitfires return to RAF Woodvale tomorrow, Friday the 18th.
Details from Woodvale:
All three will fly in together at 3.30 friday. Two are still with the RAF and one is from Rolls Royce.They have never been back to Woodvale since 1957. When they left back then, they went on to form what would be The Battle of Britain Memorial flight.We have been very lucky as this is also their (BBMF) 50th year and they were very keen to come back to where it all stated in 1957. RAF Woodvale is also the last temporary World War 2 airfield still active. We also have the veterens coming back but that is saturday.
Excellent, should be a great re-union on the saturday wioth the vets.
So Saturday the North West will reverberate to the sound of the Merlins as they fly to their various bookings in Sedburgh, Haworth and Woodvale.
