This is footage I filmed at RIAT 2003, the Fairford Airshow on 19th July 2003.

It shows a Spitfire PR Mk XIX owned by Rolls Royce. 

It was the last of the specialised photo reconnaissance (PR) Spitfires and the only one with a Griffon engine, being delivered to the RAF from mid-1944 to shortly after the end of WWII. 

Aircraft details : Spitfire PRXIX, PS853/C (G-RRGN) 'I Spy', Rolls-Royce

Filmed with a Panasonic GS5 miniDV camcorder.
