  • I was extremely lucky enough to have a flight in a modified 2 Seater Spitfire at Duxford. To say the experience was amazing is an understatement. It is something I will never forget. I have made this little video to share with you folks and once I have seen other family member videos there may even be a part 2 if you want it! Please bear with some of the video as the ground work filming in this video was done on my DSLR by my cousin Glen. I literally gave him the camera that day and relied on him for my footage. I think he's done a crack up job. The odd wobbly bit and out of focus moments but, I think it adds texture. Thank you Glen for your assistance it was greatly appreciated. Enjoy the video!

    I bet that was fantastic! The way your neck and spine was squished at the steep climb was scary...

    • @jerryncf1553
      @jerryncf1553  2 роки тому +1

      It was Andrew. It wasn't necessarily squished, more the fact I was expecting the pilot to tell me when we would climb. So, didn't quite brace myself correctly.

      The pilot had asked me if I was OK with doing a victory roll. I replied 'Yes, I'll regret it if I don't.' I thought he would tell me when he was about to pull up. But, he didn't. The initial shock was replaced with utter amazement and delight

      I did Paul, a bit nerve racking to be given the controls but, very honoured. Glad you enjoyed your experience.
