Hello Chaps,
Do you have pictures, schemes or sideviews of Spitfire Mk IXb serial number MK607, this aircraft was flown by P/O Luis Perez-Gomez from No 443 Squadron. He was killed in action during a sweep on June 16th, 1944.
I hope you can help me.
Best Regards.

443 Squadron Spitfire
According to “RCAF Squarons and Aircraft” that 443 Squadron Spitfire serial number MK607 was coded 2I-S. this reference book has no pictures of that particular Spitfire but it seems to me that it would be standard markings for that period, I have a picture of a 443 Squdron Spitfire from that time period coded 2I-X serial MJ799 and it seems the same as any Spitfire from September 1944
The Squadron Commander of 443 S/L Art Sager passed away last Saturday at the age of 90 so I no longer have access to his log book for any further reference. Cheers
PJM
