Another nice set, I love how you've kept the shutter speed just right to give the blades a bit of blur.

It's only ½ bad though :D

Thats a Hispano built plane fitted with a Rolls Royce Merlin motor.

When I was down there, he put on a great display chasing a spitfire at low level around the new building and across the field. :D

No 3 for me :thumbs:
No 1 would have been great if it hadn't got the newer aircraft in the background.

Very nice shots, the aircraft is too clean though, it needs some wear and tear/oil streaks to make it look more authentic :)

What can I say...........whats not to like ;)

A pukka german built 109 of the era would have had the exhaust ports much lower ;)

So true DF

The cowl lines bothered me and I also immediately thought this must be the hispano-suiza replica...

Off course ....:thumbs: the Daimler Benz's exhausts were low!

Number 3's great. They must be cosmetic additions on the upper engine cowling to represent the machine-guns, as I'm sure they couldn't fit the Merlin with any of the engine-mounted guns remaining.
