Spitfire TB326 of 302 Squadron reportedly was damaged/destroyed on a ferry flight on 16 April 1945. It was SOC in July 1945 by 151 RU, stationed at Wevelgem, Belgium at that time.

Trying to match any Spitfire loss/accident on said date (16-4-45) with a still unresolved crash of such type at Donk near Maldegem, Belgium (13 km E. of Brugge). Pilot could bail out and was slightly injured. Two other Spitfires of same flight proceeded to Maldegem airfield, a witness wrote in his diary.

I've been thru other Spitfire losses in FCL and 2 TAF, Vol. 3, but no hits location wise.

All info and suggestions welcome, thanks.
