Re: Spitfire Mystery - your opinions plse.
It is also possible he just didnt fancy bailing out at night !
I spent all of the 1990's and most of the 80's as both a Skydiver and Parachute instructor, during that time i did many night jumps and hated every last one! I admitt i was doing it for sport and not using it to save my life as the result of an aeroplane going down, but just maybe this pilot stayed with the Spitfire as the thought of stepping out into the dark was the worst option.
