Re: Mystery Spitfire

The markings are in the style of GC I/7 Provence, carried whilst working up on the Spitfire Mk.V and Mk.IX, although it lacks the badge below the cockpit often seen. The dark blue in the roundel is typical of French roundels painted from US sources.

Peru had no Spitfires

The Greek Spitfires were supplied from RAF sources. It would be foolish to say never, but it is unlikely that they received any ex-USAAF machines.
