Afternoon,

 

I am on the search for photos of any of the Spitfire MkIX's from the following Castle Bromwich series?

  • ML 112-156
  • ML 169-216
  • ML 229-277
  • ML 291-323
  • ML 339-381

Any help will be greatly received.

 

Thank you! JT

ML171, VY, W/C T. Vybiral, Wing Leader 134 Wing, late 1944. Appears to have been a 'quick' change from 

313 Sqn's code of 'RY'.

A pic of ML307 can be found on page 360 of Shacklady in a rather dismantled state, possibly undergoing major servicing or repair.

 

Would happily scan and share but don't know how to insert pics into a post as yet.

Colin.

Assuming you have the image at a web hosting page, and it has a URL, you just click on "Insert Image from URL" at the bottom right corner of the reply/edit box and paste in the URL.

Hi Colin,

 

Thank you for the pointer. I do have that excellent book and have found the photo you mention. Very helpful!
