EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a line-up of Supermarine Spitfire LF-9E and LF-IXE Mark series fighters of the Royal Air Force's (RAF) 43 Squadron stands proudly at Zeltweg Air Base, Austria, in 1945. The Second World War was drawing to a close, and these iconic British-made fighter planes were playing a crucial role in the Allied forces' post-invasion occupation of Austria. The Spitfire LF-9E, with the serial number RK865, is seen towards the left of the image, its wings adorned with the distinctive roundels and fin flash of the RAF. The LF-IXE, with the serial number FT C and FT E, is parked to its right, its fuselage emblazoned with the insignia of the 43 Squadron. Both aircraft exhibit the battle-hardened appearance of machines that have seen extensive use in the European theatre of war. Zeltweg Air Base, located in the Austrian province of Styria, was an essential RAF airfield during the post-invasion period. It served as a vital staging post for the Allied forces, providing logistical support, training, and operational capabilities. The presence of these Spitfires at the base underscores the pivotal role they played in maintaining security and stability in the region during the final stages of the war. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the RAF and its involvement in the European conflict. The Spitfires, with their powerful engines and agile design, were instrumental in securing Allied air supremacy and contributing to the eventual victory in World War II. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the men and women who flew these magnificent warbirds and the crucial role they played in shaping the course of history.
