FlyPast  |  January 2013
January's bumper 132-page FlyPast kicks the year off in fine style for warbird afficionados with a cover story on one of the UK's best loved World War Two fighters. Old Flying Machine Company has been flying its Spitfire Mk.IX MH434 from Duxford for around 30 years, and in the January FlyPast pilot Paul Bonhomme gives an exclusive account of flying the legendary fighter to an airshow in Malta. We include never-seen-before photos, including several taken by Paul from the cockpit!
FIGHTER COMMAND SALUTE
A special 22-page section pays tribute to the men and machines of RAF Fighter Command. Featuring exclusive colour artwork and archive images, we look at the history of the Command, its role in the Battle of Britain, and focus on some individual stories.
CANBERRA SPOTLIGHT
Our colourful 22-page Spotlight section focuses on the English Electric Canberra, a classic British jet bomber. We examine its role in service and profile some of the key players in its design.
LANCASTER BRAVERY
Avro Lancaster wireless operator John Elliott shares dramatic memories with Steve Bond.
WARHAWK RETURNS
Michael O'Leary describes how The Fighter Collection and California Aerofab collaborated to restore a significant group of Curtiss fighters.

Coert van Breda takes a look at preserved F-4 Phantoms in Texas.
Plus, we hit the road to find out what remains of wartime airfields east of Berlin, examine the USAAF nose art created by wartime artist Don Allen, visit the famous CAF Airsho at Midland, Texas, and bring you news of the first flight of the BBMF's Spitfire XVI TE311 and the latest airframe movements between Hendon and Duxford.
