Album info

At the start of Operation Overlord, it carried the fuselage designation NN M Spitfire MJ 906. However, on the very next day of the invasion, 7 June 1944, a member of 310 Squadron, F/Sgt. Miroslav Moravec, crashed it during an attempted emergency landing. He wanted to return to Appledram immediately after takeoff. It was MH819 that inherited the code letters from the destroyed machine.
