Spitfire Pilot Talks Through Full Airshow Display

Andy Sephton talks through his full display routine in the Shuttleworth Collection's Supermarine Spitfire MK Vc AR501.
A fascinating insight into the thought that went into such a dynamic airshow display.
This sequence is taken from our 'Spitfire Airshow' programme released in the mid-nineties.

Really can't beat the sight and sound of a super marine spitfire

I have to say I think the best of shuttleworth displays have now gone no disrespect to the current pilots but none of them throw the aircraft around like Andy and his colleagues did back in the 90s/00s

I enjoyed the Spitfire - Eurofighter Typhoon Display Duo. A combination of vintage with modern.

You’re right, the clipped wings *ARE* ugly. What a pity to deviate so much from Mitchell’s design.
