Mark the Mechanic - lost from the formation, but not from the Squadron

From the initial inspection of our beast to marathon welding and other work required for the MOT, ex-Team 88 member "Mark the Mechanic" was key to our plans.  Additionally there was the loan of a spray gun, free paint and even offering to service the Jag despite having already pulled out... 

Marks parting salvo to his old comrades as his Spitfire fell from the sky was to fill the tank, replace our leaking mineral oil, provide two canisters of foam tyre inflating kits, a fire extinguisher, spare bulbs, first aid kit, warning triangle and provide us with a list of useful tools we might need.

Below are the photos we took before that old Messerschmitt came at him from behind the sun...
