I spent a good part of today on a very enjoyable visit to Biggin Hill Heaven Heritage Hangar. Quite busy with SSAC flights in Hurricane T.IIB BE505 "Pegs" & Spitfire T9 MJ627.
The 'Star & Bar' Spitfire LF MkXVIE RW382 took off as I arrived, returning a while later.
Spitfire T9 MJ772 was also on the ramp.
Desert scheme MkIX LZ842 was in and out of the hangar for fuel before weighing.
BHHH is a very busy operation with some interesting aircraft on view and lots more in the 'pipeline'.
Many thanks to BHHH and Greg Davis for arranging my visit.
Would love to visit too..living close to the Battle of Britain memorial on the coast, these guys are overhead more or less constantly ..
ReplyDeleteGreat place to visit - not a museum but full of history none the less...
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting for a re-scheduled visit that was meant to happen last May. Any news on the 109?
