P7350 / 'EB-G' Supermarine Spitfire Mk IIa

RAF BBMF Spitfire P7350 is the oldest airworthy Spitfire in the world, the only Spitfire still flying to have actually fought in the Battle of Britain and believed to be the 14th of 11,989 Spitfires built at the Castle Bromwich ‘shadow’ factory in Birmingham.

P7350 is currently presented as Spitfire Mk 1a N3162 of No 41 Squadron, coded ‘EB-G’, the aircraft flown by the top-scoring Battle of Britain fighter ace Eric Lock on 5 September 1940, when he destroyed 3 enemy aircraft in a single sortie.
