Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

The weather started rather dull but in the end the sun played ball and the Silver Spitfire started the last leg of it's round the world tour back to Goodwood ..

It looks like the helmet is touching the canopy, isn't it?

It isn’t touching the canopy but this perspective is created because of the shape of the perspex..
One of the pilots who flew it says it is pretty tight with the helmet on...
