Russian Spitfire returns to the skies

Hadn't seen this elsewhere on the Forum, so thought I'd post it. Very cool, and unusual, restoration:

The "Russian Spitfire" Nearing to First Flight

That's good news - hadn't heard about this one.

Looks good with the red star. Usually not a big fan of of non RAF markings on the Spitty but this one is unique enough to look good.

Nice to see another one of these beauties in the air.

Is it me just smiling like an idiot when one of the war birds fire up? Every damm single time. Cant look at a p-47 picture without hearing the roar of it starting up.
