Battle of Britain Replica Planes Fundraising Appeal

Commemorating those who fought and died in battle for our freedom is something close to my heart and so when I read this article in the local paper, Fundraising drive begins to replace rotting gate guardians, I thought I'd do my bit to help promote it.
The St George's RAF Chapel of Rememberance at Biggin Hill airport in Kent has two planes, one a Spitfire the other a Hurricane (saved from a film set), as gate guardians. These act as a memorial for those who flew from Biggin Hill and those pilots who died during the war.
Due to their age the planes are rotting away and so the Chapel has embarked on a fundraising mission to raise £40,000 to replace them with replica planes that flew in the Battle of Britain.

The idea being to replace the planes In time for 70th Anniversary of The Battle of Britain, next year, that claimed 454 airmen from the Biggin Hill sector.
The two planes are a fitting tribute to those who gave their lives for our freedom and are a great reminder for those too young or ill informed to remember what actually happened.
