Enjoy this abbreviated look into the world of antique airplane enthusiasts as they meet for their premier fly-in event, the Antique Airplane Association / Air Power Museum Invitational Fly-in at Antique Airfield near Blakesburg Iowa.
I am making a film about my Great Uncle's Spitfire. It went down after the battle of Britain (in which he had downed up to 11 planes). It was excavated in 1994 and he received a funeral with Full military honours in 1995.
I have interviewed the archeological team, as well as various veterans who fought in the same planes at the same time. Visit my site to see my visit to the Museum where the rolls royce merlin engine of his plane is held. Srt John Stanley Gilders Spitfire Mk.IIa P7816 EBG
Glad to see Paul narrating. If anyone wants a good read, his book Bootleg Skies is a favorite.

Keep em coming- this is very well done! Neat, too, because I have ridden in several of the craft in this video. Blakesburg means a lot to me.

This video was great. To see these wonderful planes fly is just beauty in motion. To be able to see them in person, even better.
