Full size Spitfire clip
This is one of my favourite YouTube clips, How to NOT film the opening of a programme about the Spitfire!

It's an example of superb pilot skill, they probably asked for a low pass, and they got one!

This gets the cold chills crawling as they round that last barrel coming at you. Quietly sneaking in then sound/visual bombarment oversensory!. Makes you roll back on you heels with a big WOW!

Every year we get a few spits and I think a lanc flying over head.
Never bothered to ask why.

Yes, "Empire of the Sun" one of the few movies to feature a model builder and flyer!

If by "Land" you mean "Lanc" it's the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, that's where this Hurricane is from.

I'm fairly sure that Huri is a guy who flies out of Duxford and buzzes our strip during the summer he's a proper nutcase.
I'm not sure about the Spit Vid though, the shadow disappears in a couple of frames.

Whether it's real or not.
It seems out of the same 'box' as the aerobat the lands with one wing Vid which is definately fake
but where Bill Hemple simulates the same but in real life.

Oh yes, it's real, the shocked response of the filmcrew off camera prove that to me if nothing else! also, you can hear the aircraft in the distance while he's talking his intro, just after he asks if they are live.
