Time Team Spitfire dig

Posted by MickM on Mon Apr 08, 2002 08:38:30 PM

Just finished watching the re-run of the programme on Discovery where they dug up MkIA P9373 out of the French field.
Didn't realise the first time I saw it on Channel 4 that "Our Peter" Arnold was in it......perhaps it was because I didn't hear what Tony Robinson called him, or that he was wearing a cap, more likely though it was because he was showing Tony the remains of the data-plate at the time!!!
Always soooooooo interesting those little bits of metal. ;-)

Where are all the bits of that Spit now, did Steve Vizard take them home to add to his collection from the FIVE hundred wrecks he has been involved with, apparently ?
