You were lucky to see the engine run, Jose. I wish I would have been there. I think they only flew the thing once after restoration.
Very cool what you saw, Alymcleod. Amazing how stuff you see as a kid burns into your brain. Especially something like that.
Again, great photos Kmot, especially considering you were in shock at the time! Hopefully we'll start seeing more of that 109 around.

Jay, yes indeed. Also that day a Hurricane, a MkXIV Spit, the P47 with the yellow chechered nose and the P51 with British markings flew in formation with the 109. ManOhman...As time goes by, the chances to see these beasts in action get thinner.
