Flying High: A Spitfire Display at Hangar 42 with Mark Dawson

It's me, Mark Stone. Today, I have a special treat for you all. I had the pleasure of sitting down with my trusted mechanic, Mark Dawson. Mark is a specialist in vintage aeroplanes, and in this episode, we discuss the Spitfire display at Hangar 42, based at Blackpool Airport. Mark shared with me some of the most exciting moments of the display, the history and mechanics of the Spitfire, and the future of this display. It was an enlightening conversation, and I found it fascinating. I think you will, too. So join me on this journey into the world of vintage aeroplanes on the Backseat Driver Podcast.
