Great photo Jack.

Which squadron were these chaps from, and who was the Kiwi?

If that code is MV-O, that will be 53 OTU (Operational Training Unit).

Looks like a tired old Mk V with deep oil cooler, most probably at RAF Kirton on Lindsey or one of its satellites.

Those guys, just one course short of Spitfire squadron operations.

Nice shot.

Love it!

The first book that I ever read on WWII aviation was Johnson's Full Circle.
