Some time ago, i've posted a request about a spitfire crashed over the Appennini in a undefined date in mid summer 1944.
According to the latest investigations, the plane seems to be a Spitfire mk VIII with "E" wing, two 20mm hispano and two .50 cal., some shells and bakelite battery cover, with many other debris, was recovered from the crash site, the skin pieces wear green/gray paint.
I know 145 squadron and two SAAF squadron use spit VIII in summer 1944. According to the witness the plane came from east, over the lake of Gazzano the pilot make an half roll and bail out, land in a stream bed and was rescued later by some partisan and evacuated in the Modena area (Romanoro) to avoid capture.
In the area, at the time, a big anti partisan operation was in progress, so may be the date of crash was around july or august.
No data was found in the partisan archives, anyone can help with any kind of informations? thanks again
