Beautiful photos, and in high quality - what isn't quite common around the internet to be honest. Thanks a lot:)

I'm wondering about the poor fit of the panels on this spit, was that common for the type ? Or is it just because they are probably early production examples ??

I know the paint wears, but this looks like an overused airframe?

Also is that a gas patch ? to show if your under a gas attack on the wing (that square shape)

Great stuff though!

Thanks for the link! What a treasure trove!!
The Vb without a tailwheel is my favorite. Wow! One thing is for sure, the WWII era provides endless inspiration...
