Hurricane and Spitfire Collide in Texas
Just found this on another forum. A Freshly restored Hurricane and a Spitfire collided on the ground. Nobody hurt and both aircraft are repairable.

Some details HERE

Glad the planes were not written off (pilots also) but these airframes are too priceless be lost. They should only be sitting safe in a museum

Re: Hurricane and Spitfire Collide in Texas
That Spit looks like it has a dual canopy. Is that the tandem Spitfire ?
