Re: Spitfire Photos

This is P7350 a Mk. IIA believed to be the oldest Spitfire still flying, on charge August 1940 serving with 64, 266, 603 and 616 Sqns. It has had a long Rotol spinner added instead of the original shorter De Haviland.
It's with the Battle of Britain Flight in 41 Sqn. markings post-August 1940 ( note underwing cockades).
