If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Rumours are floating that the '109 will be based at Biggin Hill.

It just so happens there's already a large contingent of Allied aircraft based there (several Spitfires, Hurricane, Harvard, Cub)....

Those rumours aren't rumours - the '109 was pictured at the Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar during the week...!
