There was a photo of a Norwegian spitfire pilot reunited with his plane in todays on line Daily Mail + a shot of him with his M Type in 1943 reg GG 4027 when he was 21 ....his name is Ralf Kolling, of 332 Norwegian Squadron based at North Wield - I wonder if this car still around so he can be reunited with both his car and plane !

GG 4027 is 2M2226 (Register number 1248 - from an old copy of the Register that I have) and is shown as alive and well on the DVLA database.

And happily still listed on the Register - since 1986!

This photo appeared in an article I wrote for Safety Fast! quite a few years ago called "MG's and the RAF". I still have another pic of Ralf Kolling and the M-type which I will scan and post when I am back at work next week.
