Re: Crashed Spitfire photo identification No.611 Sqd
Hello VoyTech,
Thank you for the reply.
Yes you are correct, from January 1941 on production lines only Scheme "A".
The question was about the "FY" squadron code being before or after the fuselage roundel and if the camouflage scheme had any bearing on it. This if so would I thought help with the aircraft serial number, as it could be an odd or even number.
The question is now longer relevant due to your reply. Unless it is Pennings IIa in the photo ? But still it would not help as the number is even so scheme "A" anyway.
Also with regard to the airmans sleeve Natioality ID patch. It just looked to me to be an inverted triangle and I wondered if, as these would have been hand sewn on by the airman themselves, if they may have sometimes sewn them on inverted.
You say the only Nationality ID was the shoulder patch.
Again Thank you
Alex
