    Default WWII planes

    Did anyone else see what looked like two Spitfires or Hawker Hurricanes flying over Thurso around noon on Tuesday?

    They were both prop planes and not cessnas.

    They flew over Bilbster around 4pm yesterday. Reminded me of Mustangs as they appeared to have a straight end/edge to the wings, rather than the curve of a spitfire.
