Re: Spit crashed in north italy, summer 1944

JF931 was a Mk.VIII, but is not recorded struck off charge until 29 March 1947. Unfortunately Spitfire the History does not record any unit allocation for it, but does have it in MAAF 21st June 1944. Its first flight was also not recorded - but it was at 9 MU in August 1943.

It could be that it was the aircraft involved in F/O Locke's incident, and records were just not kept.
