We've always said that we want to see these Spitfires back home in Britain – perhaps one day even flying over the skies of Britain 

Nice one  :)

A report on Radio 4 this morning reported this stating that if they were rusty etc then they would be worth £1m each. If the packing cases were sound then it is thought that they could be recovered in pristine condition with only assembly required and woth upwards of 2m each. :y
It would be great to sea them flying in formation :y :y

I loved to be involved in this. Can you imagine opening one of the crates if it had survived in perfect condition?

Scratch them flying over Dover, have them tow a sign saying we quit the EU, while flying over Berlin in formation  :D

We just need a Prime Minister with some balls and do what the public asks, not that will ever happen.
