Great video, I also looked at "Spitfire under the bridge" which is on the same page. WOW.

Hazel, I had to keep watching it over again.  The aerial  shots were incredible.  i never realized just how difficult it was flying a Sopwith Camel let alone fly combat in one.  Such beauty seen from above.  Thanks for pointing it out.

     enjoyed it,                                                               love crazy-haze x

                       Crazy Haze,
                                           The low flying Spitfire is the great Ray Hanna flying over Alan DeCadnet who wasn't expecting such a low pass.

After seeing the difficulty of flying the Sopwith, you must see this.

Just scrolling through some of the older topics and came across this one .I think the  footage was taken at the 2004 Warbirds over Wanaka air show in New Zealand . It was also the last Wanaka show that the late great Ray Hanna and the Breitling Fighters performed at.
