Spitfire tribute returns

4:29pm Monday 19th November 2007

Biggin Hill Airport, after many years, re-established the Spitfire Fly Past to mark Remembrance Sunday.

At 11am the Spitfire flew low over the airport and Biggin Hill village war memorial before circling St George's Chapel as a mark of respect to all those who have given their lives in defence of their country.

The Spitfire was a Mark IX registered TA805. This immaculate plane is co-owned and flown by Mike Simpson and Peter Monk and is kept at Biggin Hill.
