Re: Spitfire ID Help Please

Hi Jack,

To change of the usual captions for this a/c misidentified in several book (page 176 of 2nd TAF published in 1970) at mid-September 1944, n°328 (GC 1/7) exchanged its Spit V to Spit IX. PT 467 replaced MH663 “C’’ at the end of October. First ops flight for this new “C” is on 17 November 1944 for a weather recco with Lieutenant Simard. Later this Spit will be the usual a/c for Lt Chavagnac and Slt Montrachy.Still in use in April 1945.

HTH
