A couple of pictures I got from my uncle who worked at Supermarine in Southampton, eastleigh, Hursley park and Chilbolton.
The first is of the seventh production Spitfire K9793 at Eastleigh in 1938 before joining 19 Squadron at Duxford. Destroyed 11/9/40 in combat with Ju88 while serving with 92 Squadron from Biggin Hill (pilot Sgt S Duszynski ? listed as missing).
The second was taken at Chilbolton just after the war when they were working on the Belgian Air Force contract.
A Belgian Air Force Mark XIV Spitfire hand-over ceremony. My uncle, Bill "Tommy" Tucker is centre right in overcoat, and had signed the aircraft off for flight.
The Belgian Air Force officer on his right served in the RAF during the war (F/O Van de Wale, B Flight, 349 (Belgian) Squadron). The aircraft is possibly SG108 (IQ-V), which served with the Fighter School at Koksijde in a silver and yellow scheme.
