Not today, but a few weeks ago they had a Help the Heroes event at Throckmorton in Worcester . There were a lot of planes from a Spitfire to Harrier Jet .
It's easy to stand with the crowd . It takes courage to stand alone

love watching them overhead, especially the Spitfire , so far I have seem , Spitfire, Lancaster Bomber, Apache Helicopter, Harrier jump jet . The Harrier was that frightening i sat with my hands on my ears and my head down , it was a terrifying noise. There were some others but I can't remember their names. The most beautiful was the Spitfire , it sounds and looks lovely ,sounds daft i know considering what it was used for .
