Spitfire P9374 never made it to Battle of Britain as it crash-landed on French beach and lay hidden for 40 years

What a great story and fantastic to see another Mk.I return to the skies, the rarest one of all in flying condition!! That photo of it beached in France is a famous and often used one too, so it's particularly nice to know that it has been rescued from a watery grave Cool ThumpUp
