I loved the commentary and the shots of Hurricanes flying followed by what looked like BP Defiants and especially the pronunciation of Cambridgeshire

 Jeez fellas, do we have to rip apart everything these days? It's maybe not perfect, but it looks pretty darn good overall considering the medium. Another cool thing is the younger age of the people invloved in the construction, nice to see that. Looks like it's all for a good cause too.

 Also, years down the road when they wonder where this Spitfire is buried they'll know where to look! ;D

But they'll never find it with a metal detector.

Looked like it needed a lot of sanding and Bondo. Why the he11 would anybody decide to use egg cartons to do something like that? It's a "sculpture"? I call BS on that. VD~ Steve
