Spitfire VI – photo 07:  Spitfire VI BR579/ON-H seen from an interesting angle. Note the large cabin air intake, part of the pressure system uner the pipes. It is another way to identify a Mk.VI, like the four-blade propeller. Worth noting, just before the cockpit, the name ‘Boroda’ from the surname of the Squadron has been partially over painted.
