The Flying Circus✈️ Rebuilding a WW2 Spitfire From Wreckage | Inside the Spitfire Factory Ep4

Hidden inside a little-known workshop at one of Britain’s most historic wartime airbases, a team of engineers are racing to bring an aviation legend back to life. The Spitfire Factory follows Peter Monk and his crew as they rebuild a rare 1943 Mark IX Spitfire from rusting wreckage into a flying icon. With £2 million on the line and no margin for error, this six-part series combines high-stakes restoration with the untold stories behind Britain’s most famous fighter aircraft. In Episode 4, it’s the biggest week of the year for Peter Monk and his Spitfire Factory team with their warbirds due to play the starring role in the annual Biggin Hill air show. But first they need to get their Greek Spitfire restoration back to the paint shop and they’re missing some crucial wing components. Factory tour guide Austin heads to an historic pub to recreate the story of his greatest Battle of Britain hero. Ground crew chief Ray meets a WAAF veteran who recalls her experiences working on Spitfires during the war. And at the air show the festivities culminate in an extraordinary solo display by Peter Monk’s favourite Spitfire.
