Mighty battle of nature's spitfire
Nottingham Post
|August 14, 2025
MANKIND'S mastery of the skies has been a theme this summer with the pride of the RAF and American Top Guns delighting family days out.
A ceremonial Hurricane and Spitfire flypast over Buckingham Palace to mark VE Day brought patriotic goosebumps to attention.
Two US F-35A Lightnings skimming the runway at Imperial War Museum Duxford shook every bone.
No matter how much those aircraft shock-waves are still reverberating, I must admit to being blown away last week by watching two of nature’s supreme flying machines locked in a dog fight.
Seeing a seven-strong family party flying in close formation was a new experience, with the synchronised wingbeats emphasising the power of these buzzard-size wraiths.
