That's filming for a new Hollywood take on the Battle of Britain, where our hapless Spitfire, is saved at the final hour by the arrival of brave squadrons of Mustangs and Thunderbolts.

Yes, the years, nations and planes are all out, but it's Hollywood.

Pretty sure it was the Red Bull Flying Bulls. The largest of the aircraft was a DC6 apparently.

I never found reason to up-bling mine. FURQHAHA seemed perfectly sufficient.

We have a better class of aircraft ove Newhaven. I saw a Lancaster & a Spitfire about 11'ish.
