A pair of Spits and a pair of Hurricanes are to fly over the Churchill War Rooms in Whitehall today as part of the 70th Anniversary events being held throughout the UK.

They're starting at Hawkinge and flying to Whitehall for 16:05 then heading to Hendon.

I'll be dragging me arse out of the office for that, me thinks smile

I saw a single Spitfire and Hurricane fly over me in Kent this afternoon, as part of the their visit to all the Battke of Britain airfields. An impressive sight and sound!

There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
