EN224 is the only one I’m aware of. Mark12 could give more detail, but Peter Arnold had the firewall and some bits combined with other Seafire XV parts and other Spit bits that were going into the restoration of EN224. I believe the EN224 project is with someone else now and under restoration.
I’d be curious as to what Spit XII the parts in Switzerland are from? I know that a couple of Spit XII crash sites have been investigated in France.
Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I’ve been wondering what happened to EN224 and wonder how the restoration is progressing? AND whens that confounded book coming out:diablo::D:D

Doug Arnold didn’t have a Spitfire XII. EN224 was owned by Peter Arnold. He promised to send it to me here in Minnesota. I’m still waiting 🙂
