| Love the sound??? Come on, you can do better that that my friend!  (just kiddin')
This was a shot taken at Duxford as mentioned earlier. I didn't have the possibility to convert it from my digicam to a mpeg or wmv so Barlow took the oppertunaty and did a fine job. So there you go guys. Couldn't with-hold this fine piece of video. The quality may not be as good but that's caused by viewing this particular footage over and over and over again! 
I decided to put this footage on this site cause the very close surprise high speed pass of this XIV gave me the chills like nothing did before  !
Enjoy !

Ok, ok.... now to have the Flug Werk's Fw190A8 doing the same maneuver don't you reckon Barlow?
