Adam Banks Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Looks like A2A are getting around to working their way through their back-catalogue. The MkI and MkII Spitfire is the first off the block. There's some lovely ORBX NZNI scenery down below (honest!!) ... as it's a MkII version of Brendon Deere's MkIX Spitfire seen regularly in NZ. Adam.

Adam Banks Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 Here's a more "moody" shot from the same photo-shoot ... a little later in the day. The green stuff is FTX NZNI - around Ardmore (NZAR) - always a treat. Our winters are mild in the North Island, so we keep our windows (and cockpits) open all the year round . Adam.

Jack Sawyer Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 What a gorgeous shot #2 is! Wish I could love there, windows open all year? If you did that here in summer you wouldn't need an oven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a MkIXc - owned by Brendon Deere - restored in the colour scheme of his father's (Al Deere) personal MkIX Spitfire when he was Wing Leader at Biggin Hill. Here's the A2A MkII ... and the RealAir MkIX (not my repaint): Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing shots comparaison !!
