Shuttleworth’s De Havilland DH.88 Comet. It was built specifically to compete in the 1934 MacRobertson Air Race England to Australia which it won. It’s a lovely Aircraft maintained in pristine airworthy condition #MikesAircraftPhotos

A small earthquake in Germany, six years ago, proved to be the spontaneous detonation of a #WW2 bomb. (Apparently happens once a year.)
