not sure about the pilot but definately August 1940. The cloud patterns in the background are unmistakeable. Why have you not copyrighted it?

Dont need to everyones honest on this forum I could swap the original for some of your buried treasure Ian :diablo:
I would have thought the Oval gunsight was a dead give away.

How could you suggest such a thing? , this picture was taken during my time in Bob Tucks Squadron ,let me just work out my date of birth a minute before you ask for proof. Any way you know your not allowed to advertise on here, you should know better Andy. 😀

Well, that photo certainly had me foxed for a while. Then, of course, I realised why that impossibly good looking pilot was strangely familiar.

Advertising? Good heavens! Not on this forum, surely? I haven’t seen any blatant advertising here for….oohhh…at least the last three or four threads, Graham!
