They will talk about the Spitfire tail chase for years to come. In plan view, mirrored dumbbells either side of the runway with an aero pair patrolling in between.

Wonderfully choreographed, and safe, but looked like complete pandemonium viewed from the crowd line. There were Spitfires everywhere. :D
