Sad end for a Spitfire

[BLUETHUNDER]

Came down yesterday in Kent.

Firstly I hope no one was injured

Secondly I hope that the part's, time and money can be found to repair the Spitfire, would be a crying shame if it was written off or made un airworthy...........

Doesn't look right to me. Looks like some kind of static display.

Yeap, looks like a giant diorama.

[Sixpackpert]

So that'll be a nicely done display then?

There is something not quite right about that picture.

Looks like a mock up?

Looks like a display. Bits ain't bent.

Amazingly lucky that it came down intact right next to all those period tents and vehicles, what are the odds of that eh?

[xllifts]

Nice try

[scotal]

War & Peace show?

[Apache]

does look staged doesn't it, the zorsts are nice and shiny and the radiator looks blanked off If it is real then it doesn't look too shagged

They usually dig a trench and bend the prop. This one built its self a bank to crash on and kept its props straight!

You'd have to be very short on brain cells to believe that crashed!

Rumbled to quickly..It was part of the displays at the War and Peace show last week.

[Cara Van Man]

Wow, looks great. nicely done....bents props would hve made it even better

It's an amazing coincidence that it landed on the War and Peace Show, on over the weekend.

One of the blades was bent.The actual prop came off a real Spit last year that had a slight mishap.
