Greetings All,
I am wondering if, in the vast collections of material and expertise of this forum and its members, someone might have a photograph depicting the Spitfire Mk. VIII of Argentine pilot Ian Adamson of 136 Sqn, Ceylon (and environs). This would be, naturally, in the 1944-45 time frame.
It might be a long shot to ask, but I reckon that if some member here has not got such a photo, then no one has! Any help would be very much appreciated.

Spitfire F.VIII; Chittagong 5/44, F/O Bob King
Spitfire VIII 136 Sqn Fousane Strip, 6/44, (G/Capt TAF Elsdon) and
Spitfire LF. VIII, MT567, 136 Sqn HM-B, Cocos Is mid-1945

Just a gentle bump here for weekend browsing…

Sorry, only one I have handy of 136 is the pan shot of the entire squadron in the Cocos islands.
