Don’t think it’s on the list for Legends.

If you don’t turn up for a couple of weeks you’re going to be sadly disappointed VoyTech! 🙂

We’ll see in a couple of weeks, I guess.

And even newer colours.
The ZF-U codes of 308 Squadron were selected for an air display during the Air Picnic at the Polish Aviation Museum in Cracow (last weekend) because the event was attended by Jerzy Glowczewski (92), a veteran who had flown similarly marked and coded Spitfire on 1 January 1945 when he claimed a FW190 over Ghent.
TE184 was brought to Poland for this occasion by Jacek Mainka, the first Pole ever to fly a Spitfire into and in Poland.
Jacek’s late grandfather, Ryszard Kwiatkowski, was a mechanic with 303 and 308 Squadrons during the war and saw Glowczewski off in ZF-U for that mission.
