This weekend I heard a very heavy motorsound and opened the roof window.
Saw those two comming. Ran down and took my camera with unfortunately the wrong lens mounted.
Hope you like them though ?

Very interesting photos. Looks like a polish? Spitfire. The other Plane is a B-25 Mitchel, not a fortress (B-17)

Those are great pictures for I'm sure short notice! Marauder is right, that's a b-25 Mitchell. Also I was curious about the insignia on the spitfire and researched a little, its a Vickers flown by the RNAF. Looks like it had a hard life with quite a few accidents and battle incidents.


Here are some pictures of the same one you shot, thought you might find it interesting :)
