– FSX Spitfire PR.XIX PS888 ‘The Last Sortie’

FSX Spitfire PR.XIX PS888 ‘The Last Sortie.’ On 1 April 1954 this aircraft of 81 Sqn conducted the last ever operational sortie by an RAF Spitfire, flying a PR mission from its base at Seletar to an area of jungle in Johore thought to contain Communist guerrilla hideouts. After the flight the aircraft’s ground crew painted the inscription “The Last!” on the left engine cowling. PS915 of the BBMF currently wears the color scheme and markings of PS888.
