Rare Spitfire Colour Photo - When/Where?...
Stumbled on this photo and thought someone may know when/where they were taken. They were shot by LIFE magazine possibly summer 1941? Spit still in brown/green with early spinner...Mk II perhaps????
One for Andy Saunders I think... My guess is Hornchurch:-) Last edited by Phil Lloyd; 11th October 2010 at 12:00. Reason: Revised Text

Re: Rare Spitfire Colour Photo - When/Where?...
I think this has been discussed here before?
I suspect it is probably a 54 Squadron machine, but thats as much as I can offer I'm afraid. Others may have better ideas about this quite well-known photo. Thanks for posting it.

Andy is right, this has been discussed here before.
Have a look at this thread Phil: http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=19155 I agree it's a fantastic photo.
