A Special Mention

 Last weekend was a pleasant start to the season at Duxford although the flying content was basically some of the 'usual suspects'. Nothing wrong with that and I was happy to see the displays but the stand out was probably the Staggerwing that was not included on the listed flying schedule. I noticed it on the flight line when we arrived but had no expectation of seeing it in the air. However it eventually taxied out and performed and was a welcome addition to the display.

I believe that it is 40 years since it was last at Duxford and, as far as I can gather, has recently been in the Netherlands for some restoration work. It would be nice to think it might display with the TFC Staggerwing at some point. For now here are a few more pictures.
