Spitfire 9 is on a distinguished road
Re: Biggin Hill station commander G/Capt G.L.Raphael

Paul,

My original attention was drawn to the incident by being shown the Spitfire accident crash site / remains, close to my home, subsequently making further inquiries at Brenzett Museum and the museum at Hawkinge.

The guys at both basically say the same, their research indicates a Curtiss Commando, for sure.

Apparently, a museum member has been in touch with an American agency, much Commando wreckage being found approximately a mile from the Spitfire site.
