Re: Which stories behind these photos?

The codes ZP identify this as 74 Sqn

This is interesting, as according to Air Britains RAF Aircraft W1000- Z9999 there was a gap in the production of ten Spitfire Mk V from W3216 to W3226. So W3219 did not exist, was never built and was never lost (well never say never!).

However its very likely to be W3210 which was lost to 74 Sqn on 27.6.41 flown by P/O WJ Sandman who was shot down and made POW while escorting Blenheims to Hazebrouck.
