Henlow 1970’s. I would need to locate the negative bag for the precise date.

The RAF Museum had storage facility at Henlow at this time.

My assumption was that these parts were for the restoration of the Icelandic Battle.

I had details that a ‘Spitfire’ had been sighted in Iceland during a periodic ‘Geese Count’.

When it proved to be a Battle I passed all the details on to Jack Bruce at the RAFMus and a party from St Athan recovered it.

For the ‘Stars and Bars’ Battle, Dick Richardson will have the details.

Thank you, Mark12 🙂
