I know this is a strange request but...
I'm looking for a color picture of the Mk V Spitfire that Bob Hoover was flying when he got shot down...
Obviously, it doesn't have to be THAT plane, but one with the same markings.

Anybody...Bueller...anybody

Mudge the weird

Sorry don't have a picture handy.
His shoot down story is a little stretched
truth wise :roll:

Thanks Jack...I saw a painting of it but the detail wasn't what I wanted.

Mudge the selective :roll:
