Misc.

"Spitfires may have tailed Messerschmitts in the cloudy skies over Britain 55 years ago, but Stanley Park in Calgary is where it happened again recently. Daniel Preston of Hinton, Alberta in his 1978 Spitfire 1500 is hot on the tail of Steve Bryant from Calgary in his 1956 Messerschmitt KR200. Steve and Daniel re-enacted a cartoon scene from a vintage British motoring magazine."
--Fred Griffiths
