    Fun fact, Kenley was theone of the main 3 fighter stations in London in ww2, not to bad for a small suburban town.

    Funny, the first picture of this video was a "Hurricane"!

    Absolutely amazing footage. This was just before the German air raid which destroyed several hangers. Wasn't this also the airfield depicted in Angels One-Five?

    Some good shots of Hurricanes as well, but they don't get a mention - as usual!

      I disagree. You can't have anything with the word 'Spitfire' in the title without half the comments being about how no one mentions the Hurricane. What rot. Everyone mentions the Hurricane.
