Re: Crashed Spitfire photo identification No.611 Sqd

I'm still desperately seeking a clear photo of the round badge that EN133 carried below the windscreen on on the LH side. In the one fuzzy photo I have I can also convince myself that there may be a name painted on the fuel tank armor plating, angled up at about 45 degrees. The photo is just too fuzzy to glean more detail.

Anyone know of a better photo of this a/c?

As Voytech pointed out much earlier, this has an "external" type armoured windscreen which excludes the possibility that this is a Mk IX and also excludes SOME batches of Mk V's.
