Re: Seeking ID of crashed Spitfire "Y" near Calais, France, probably summer, 1940
Chris,
Thanx Chris, nice to be able to eliminate a BoB-period Spitfire from consideration. This almost surely makes it a crash during the Western Campaign of May-June, 1940. I think most of those have been accounted for, but since this has no November, 1940, and later white rear fuselage band this must be from the earlier WC. Either the pilot rode this one down and was killed or he bailed out.
Who can figure this out? This should be obvious to a Spitfire expert from that period just by a precess of elimination.
