Just another quick P.S about the first cannon armed Spitfires.

They didn't have machine guns. Just 2 hispanos.

The ones with the Mg's didn't appear till 11th August, the first one being S/No X4231

They changeover back to the 8 mg version was completed on 4th September by using "some clapped out old things from an OTU" according to Squadron Leader Pinkham, who had campaigned to get the Ib's replaced.

Ironically he was killed in one of these "clapped out" machines the very next day.
