The Sound of Victory: Amazing Video of 16 Classic Spitfires Flying in Formation at the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain

Screen Shot 2014-04-23 at 8.35.34 AM

This video is so cool that we just had to share it. There are only a few airworthy Spitfires left and back in 2010 to mark the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain, they managed to get together 16 of them to do a flypast in Britain. It’s an amazing site – something I wish I’d seen in person!

The planes fly in formation and then after that, they chase each other around like they did in battle – show their power and maneuverability. It will give you goosebumps!

Put some headphones on and then watch this on full screen. You won’t regret it!

There’s still 2 days left to get our Exclusive Spitfire Jack t-shirt during it’s special reprint run. It’s going to make a fantastic Christmas present!

Video: History of the London Red Phone Box

Here’s a segment about the Red Phone Box from a lovely little show that aired many years ago called Disappearing London hosted by Suggs (from Madness). I’m sharing this segment because it gives a little bit of history behind the iconic London Red Phone Box that is actually very interesting. It also explains the differences between the different types. Check it out.
