little Messerschmitt's I went to Duxford a few weeks ago and saw the Red Baron's replica dri-dekker, not a Messerschmitt btw
It actually flies although talking to a volunteer that was maintaining it he said it was a real hand-full and not easy to control straight and level. However it could turn on a sixpence (2.5p) climb dive and perform all manor of manoeuvres with ease.I asked the cost of a flight in a Spitfire at the control tower, you may need to sit down the person replied, £2,700...
I'll put that on my bucket list along with a trip into space
