We've seen this before - - but

If you really like aircraft you have probably seen this before, but it reminds me of the pilots that did so much during World War II, and how much so many owe them so much for their sacrifices. Those that are no longer with us, I hope you are in Heaven with our Lord. Thank you and Merry Christmas to all of you.

I went to see Godzilla Minus One the other day. In the movie a Kyushu J7W Shinden is featured. This plane has a canard layout with a pusher engine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyushu_J7W_Shinden

Thanks for the posting. For those near Reading Pa. Every D day weekend there is an airshow at the Mid Atlantic. air museum. All WWII stuff. While not as dramatic as Duxford it's worth a visit.

I'm always ready to see any of these type of airshows. I was born in Jan,. 1943, and I was always building plastic models of every WWII aircraft I could find. The sound of those big engines just gives me goosebumps. Glad you enjoyed it.

If anyone wants to see more flying there are many videos on their website. Here is one that is 52 minutes from 2023 I think.

I'm glad so many say this about Duxford and all the information about the Battle of Britain with the Germans. Really glad so many liked it. Thanks for looking everyone. Made my day.
