  1. Another amazing engine sound is the Harvard They used to do airobatic displays at our local airshows. Today a pilot named Skully Levine owns a decomishioned Harvard and keeps it going at airshows. Another Spitfire item is an airframe found at a local scrap heap was shipped to England and rebuilt as a Dutch 2 seater version. I felt it would have been nicer to keep it stock but then again the two seaters are extreamely rare birds. Last I heard it was being auctioned I wish I had a couple o mill Id certainly love to own that kind of history. The Spitfire in South Africa affectionately named Evelyn was cracked up a few years ago at Margate Airport latest reports suggest Evelyn is on the road to recovery and will join us again soon. Tannie Ju an elderly Ju 52 has had her undercarriage rebuilt and her 3 engines replaced with units cannabalised from three old harvards and is once more flying.
