A dear Australian friend pointed out this short film, "SPITFIRE 944", on youtube. It's a film about some 16mm "home" movies including the USAAF 14th Photo Reconnaissance Squadron along with an interview of a pilot, Lt. Col. John Blythe, flying a Spitfire XI.

It's a wonderful little film. I remember it created quite a buzz in the historic aviation community when it came out.

 

I absolutely love the look on the chap's face when he realises that the film is of himself.

Great film, and a worthy award winner.

I watched this one several times a few years ago, of note is the Sperry Type Venturi on the port aft flank of one of the taxying Spits.
