Re: E-bay - shot down Spitfire

well, the serial # is presumably P8xxx and it looks like the second letter is a "V" so it presumably could be QV for 19 Sq? THe pilot looks like he probably survived to become a POW.

Re: E-bay - shot down Spitfire

Hi Alex - thanks for more info and lot of options.

Have somebody photo of crashed Spitfire from Alex answer, and we can skip them from options?

Thanks
