Advanced. Forthright. Signifficant.

No there’s quite a few. BBMF have another 3 (I think) and there’s more around the world.

After the recent accident though it might be time to start putting 'airworthy' in inverted commas. When the memorials start costing more lives, it's probably time to draw a line under it. The entire BBMF was grounded for the D-Day hullabaloo, and rightly so.

Yeah, one of the attractions of sunny summer walks in the Fickleshole/Chelsham area, (South of New Addington) is sitting in fields and churchyards and looking up to see and hear the Spitfire taking people for joy-rides from Biggin.

Unsurprisingly I disagree. (Although grounding the BBMF was absolutely the right decision until cause has been established).
Planes crash, old ones, new ones, well looked after ones, badly maintained ones. It's an inevitable consequence of slipping the surly bonds of earth.
I've been up in older planes than the Spitfire that crashed, inverted and all sorts. If something happened that would have been a bummer but I wouldn't have missed the experience for anything. (Easy to say until you're upside down in a burning plane I suppose but there you go.)
2 gliders crashed 3 days before the Spitfire, 1 person died. Another glider crashed yesterday, pilot dead. I don't see anyone saying we should ground all gliders.

Are you airworthy?

You're thinking Hurricanes. There are maybe a dozen "airworthy", but only one or two of them actually fly. Fragile things, with the canvas wings.

Lots of gliders have engines.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
In need of restoration unfortunately.
Undercarriage ok?

Maybe not ground them, but they should all be limited to a top speed of 20 mph.
