Fighter Flight -- Photo Mission

The inside view and story of how to get great airborne pictures of iconic aircraft; in this case a Hawker Hurricane XII, Spitfire IX, and P-51D Mustang. Shot from both sides: inside the Spitfire cockpit, and inside the Harvard/T-6. Spitfire pilot Dave Hadfield Photographer Peter Handley and These three aircraft display at airshows as “Victory Flight“. Contact Dave Hadfield for details. The aircraft are from the Mike Potter Aircraft Collection, based at Gatineau airport, CYND. The song playing during the end-credits is Dave’s adaptation of Magee’s “High Flight“. Note: the wiggly canopy frame in the go-pro view from the Harvard is a fault of that camera system -- mount vibration causes that false image.
