Re: Red Tobin No,71 POPOCATAPETL I

Santiago,

This is going to be difficult to track down. The aircraft was assigned to 71 Sqn on September 2, 1941, and lost on Sept 7. Norman Franks' Book RAF Fighter Command Losses Vol. 1 does not give the squadron codes. I checked a few online references to the aircraft, and none give the code. Perhaps it can be found in the Air Britain book on Presentation Spitfires, but I can't lay my hands on the book at the moment.

Enjoy!

Frank.
