The legendary "Spy Plane" in action! 🕶️ Westland Lysander V9367 in its night camo 🌑.

Built in 1942, this exact plane flew clandestine night missions for No. 161 Squadron RAF 🤫. Dropping off SOE agents and picking up French Resistance fighters from pitch-black fields 🇫🇷. Pure courage in the dark! 🫡

Extra 200 (EA-200) is a high-performance, two-seat tandem aerobatic aircraft designed by the German manufacturer Extra Flugzeugbau. The registration G-EZMT belongs to a specific example registered in the United Kingdom.
Despite outputting 200 horsepower—compared to the 300+ hp found in the Extra 300 series—the Extra 200 features a symmetrical airfoil profile.

This means the wing generates identical aerodynamic forces whether flying right-side up or inverted. From a physics perspective, the aircraft performs equally well in inverted flight, relying entirely on the pilot's angle of attack input to create lift, making it fully capable of advanced Unlimited-level aerobatic maneuvers.

Some machines just have a soul… and then there’s the 1945 de Havilland DH.89A Dragon Rapide! ✈️🤍

This iconic biplane (G-AGSH) flew for Channel Islands Airways and BEA back in the day 🇬🇧 Fun fact: this exact aircraft was one of the very last biplanes to operate on BEA scheduled passenger services, flying all the way into the 1960s on the Land's End to Isles of Scilly route before helicopters took over! 🚁📜

Today, it keeps aviation history alive in style with the Shuttleworth Collection ☁️✨

Who’s ready for a little time travel back to the golden era of flight? 🕰️ Absolutely timeless.

Royal history in the sky! 👑✈️

Did you know that the all-red aircraft in the photo is the iconic de Havilland DHC-1 Chipmunk WP903? It was in this very machine back in 1969 that King Charles III (then Prince of Wales) learned to fly and made his first solo flight!

Watching this legendary aircraft fly in formation alongside the other colorful Chipmunks was an absolute treat. Timeless elegance, classic engine sound, and a living piece of aviation history right before our eyes.

Which livery catches your eye the most – royal red, classic yellow, or training schemes? 🔴🟡⚪
