Ringlett Posted March 23, 2024 Author Posted March 23, 2024 (edited) Long life of EN199 An awful lot of years ago I was intrigued by a Spitfire dug out of a scrap yard in Malta, a former toy of the local scouts. But then my priorities changed and the models gave way to slightly different shapes. Then the name of Mr. Taussig from Teplice appeared in the press and information about his war in Italy. His machine appeared in a Spitfire kit produced by Eduard. Then I got my hands on a book by Mr. Hurt. And that's when it all came together. For the last two months I've been digging through the book, the internet, looking for photos and piecing together the mosaic. And now, recently, the Spitfire IXc has appeared on Boxing Day. So I started drawing and comparing the photos. And something just didn't add up. So if the final product differs from previous reconstructions it's on me and I'm aware of that, it's my opinion on the look of the machine. A little bit then falls on the imperfection of the 3D model from the game. So EN199 in the course of time: I don't have the likeness of the first one and can't serve it. The EN199 was made by Supermarine at Woolston as a conversion from the Mk.V. So it had a short air intake and contingent camouflage. However, because of the need to reinforce the air force in the African campaign it was moved to 12. Maitenance Unit at Kirkbridge where it was converted to a tropical design and re-camouflaged in desert colours. It is possible that it had already been given a larger air intake with a sand filter. EN199 in the form of the overflight from 12.MU to 47. MU to be disassembled and moved in a large crate ship to Gibraltar. During this flight it was piloted by Czechoslovak ATA member Cyril Nováček, a former Czechoslovak Air Force pilot and in the spring of 1940 a member of GC I/1 Armeé de l'Air.Download EN 199 12. MU In January 1943, the machine was flown at Gibraltar by 81 Squadron RAF and subsequently selected as a personal aircraft by RAF 322 Fighter Wing Commander Ronald Berry. After moving to Bone Airfield in Algiers, they flew together until a crash in late April 1943. During operational flights in this machine, Berry shot down at least one Bf 109G.Download EN199 Ronald Berry The machine was repaired and at the latest got a long air inlet with a dust filter. Subsequently it was assigned to the 154th RAF Squadron at Ta Qali airfield in Malta, the squadron supported the landings in Sicily where it subsequently moved. Here on the E. Artus he shot down another Bf 109 on 17.7.43. This was followed by covering the landings at Salerno and operations over Italy. The aircraft was subsequently sent to Malta for revision. Download EN199 154. SQN After the revision he got to the status of the 1435th squadron of the RAF, a semi-temporary unit that operated in the defense of Malta and then from the Italian mainland from the base Brindisi. Here he passed with 357. MU with a further overhaul and change of camouflage scheme. This was a variation on the RAF continental scheme.Download EN199 1435. SQN In December 1944, the aircraft appeared at 225 Squadron for cooperation with the Army, the unit was engaged in operational and tactical reconnaissance over the battlefield. The aircraft was not modified for the reconnaissance role and served as an escort machine. It was here that Kurt Taussig, one of Winton's Czechoslovakian children, by this time a trained artillery spotter with fighter pilot qualifications, met him on his arrival with the unit in February 1945. During 15 operational sorties during March-April 1945, they covered together their colleagues equipped with photographic apparatus. Kurt Taussig served with the unit until January 1947, and left EN199 at the end of April 1945 to undergo another review.Download EN199 225. SQN I have not been able to trace the form of EN199 from when it served with the Meteorological, Communications and ASR swarm at Hal Far base in Malta. So we are missing the period October 1945 to January 1946. In January 1946, the machine was assigned to the 73rd Fighter Squadron at Luqa airfield in Malta. Not much flying was done, but the machine was given a decent unit designation and was cared for until 23 December 1946 when a violent and fierce storm swept over Malta. One of its consequences was the damage to EN199, with which in its tether lines the storm frolicked until the machine's undercarriage gave out and it lay tiredly on its belly.Download EN199 73. SQN Coincidentally, EN199 was repaired and its continued operation was considered. Eventually, however, it ended up as a donation to a scout troop in Floriana, still in Malta. Here it slowly decayed and was dismantled by miscreants and metal thieves until its wreckage reached the Civil Defence branch base at Hal Ghagur, where it went to serve as an aid to firefighters for training in salvage techniques.Download EN199 Last flight Subsequently, the wreckage of the machine came into the hands of the Malta National War Museum Association and from 1974 the situation of EN199 began to improve. Here and there something was repaired, found or bought. Parts of the airframe also came from kites recovered from the deep sea around Malta. In the early 1990s EN199 moved to a garage on the Ta Qali abandonment, with the help of organisations half a world away, an engine donated by the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight and half a Pat Arnold wing. The repaired aircraft was on display at the 1995 Victory Day celebrations at La Valette. It is currently on display at the Malta Aviation Museum in Ta Qali. It bears the camouflage of Ronald Berry. Well, you can judge for yourself how faithful it is. There's been a reversal of the paint scheme, some of that copyright licence. Anyway. The aircraft is unairworthy, the engine can be put into operation.Download EN199 in Museum Edited March 23, 2024 by ATA_Ringlett

Ringlett Posted June 6, 2024 Author Posted June 6, 2024 Operation Overlord - 80 years Operation Overlord was the code name for the Battle of Normandy, the Allied operation that launched the successful invasion of German-occupied territories in Western Europe during World War II. The operation began on 6 June 1944 with the Normandy landings. The amphibious assault with more than 5,000 vessels was preceded by an air assault of 1,200 aircraft. On June 6, nearly 160,000 troops crossed the English Channel, and by the end of August, more than two million Allied troops were in France. MH779 Spitfire LF.Mk.IXc 453.
