Here are two different Spitfires pictures that I took at different air shows.

This Spit is owned by the SAAF and needed a new crankshaft to be able to soar the sky's again. At the 17 October 1998 Swartkop air show the general public was asked to help out. By the end of the day the money needed and more was collected and on the 10 April 1999 we as the public had the pleasure to see it fly once more. Here she is taxiing at Swartkop Air Force Base.
