Great shot - I'm not mad keen on aeroplanes, but that one's excellent! Now repeat the shot with a Spitfire!!!

was the spitfire affectionately known as the spittie.... That sounds vaguly familier.

In spite of all the hoopla about drama by the photographer, the documentary style, for a dramatic subject, can create it's own illusion. It also works in event photography, I Think..
