I hope the pilot is ok.
Apparently a Battle of Britain Spit has crashed in Lincolnshire.
Anyone any info as to damage i.e engine failure and crash landing or totally destroyed?

Awful news, Blue Skies and Per Ardua Ad Astra.
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, – and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of – wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,
I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air…
Up, up the long, delirious burning blue
I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or ever eagle flew –
And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
One of my favourite poems. Thank you.

Horrible news.
RIP pilot.
Cheers,
Neil.
Sad loss, and commiserations to the pilot's family.
He was due to fly past our local steam fair at 2:30pm yesterday.
