Just so you know, he is not the only guy out there with that dream... That was a nice thing for you to do. I would be thrilled to the bone...

@pjdorothy Awesome, you're a good woman. My wife doesn't understand shit about planes.

I've been married to my husband for 20 years and he has talked my ear off about these planes since then. So for his birthday last year I arranged for him to take a ride in one. (I'll post the video I made as a response) He got to fly twice and it just so happened Warbird Digest was out filming the plane that day. He got fly with two mustangs and a T6! I couldn't help but cry for watching my husband's dream come true!

@pjdorothy Thanks for the video response! Thats an amazing video, from what was undoubtedly an amazing day. Great to see, and great memories for you both, I'm sure. Thanks again.

Great video! Was that a Hawker Typhoon I saw with the 6-bladed prop (actually 2 counter rotating ones if memory serves) and invasion stripes?

@usafvet100 Hi, thanks for watching and commenting. This is an old video of mine, shot on a really inferior camera. I havent watched it in ages, but the aircraft you are referring to is probably a Griffon engined Spitfire with D-Day invasion stripes. Regards.

@Hanglands Thanks for responding. Since my curiosity was piqued, I actually did a little research last night, and found a photo of a Griffon-engined Seafire (the seagoing version of the Spitfire) with the counter-rotating props mounted on a single shaft. The Typhoon had a big radiator scoop under the spinner. My bad! I wish I had made that airshow. That was an awesome lineup of classic warbirds!

@usafvet100 Flying Legends is the best air show of its type in the UK, the only year I havent been was 2009. I have some much better quality footage from the 2010 show, check my channel. Regards, and best wishes.
