Spinners Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IA - No.87 Squadron, RAF Fighter Command, 1940 When No.87 Squadron returned from France in May 1940 they were seriously depleted and after a brief period at Debden they were sent north to Church Fenton to recuperate and re-equip before moving south to No.10 Group on the South West coast. In early August 1940 the squadron began to receive new black-painted Spitfire Mk.IA's and immediately started day and night patrols before commencing night intruder operations over enemy airfields in northern France in October 1940.
