There was a split second shot of a dude in the cockpit of the Lanc, any idea who it was and where the footage is?

I just love living close to Duxford and Shuttleworth, always get these era planes flying over. 
Was it me, but those 6 Merlin engines sounded alot louder then the 2 Typhoon's and 2 Tornadoes???
Got so many stories of Tempsford from my nan and many others from my town. Churchill's secret airbase, lots of cool history.

I was there last Thursday, got to see one of the Spitfires fly which was awesome watching that, and the Sally B being worked on again, hope to see it fly. 
Got a couple of pics to show, sorry on hacking the Royal Wedding thread.
Not everyday you see that type of plane fly on no airshow days. Talked to the guy whilst he was checking the engine, etc beforehand. Very interesting.

This numberplate is illegal on various levels. Firstly it is not a recognised registration, secondly the font on the letters is too wide and would not be recognised by ANPR, there is also no post code at the bottom, and there is no country in the EU called ♥U
William should get 6 points at least imo

Might also have a case for driving without due care.
Not even sure it needs plates, as per the rest of the royal fleet.

When I heard they had driven away from the palace in an Aston Martin I was expecting a nice, flashy, brand new DB9
