And now for a literally cool pic, dispersal exercises in Sweden at Vidsel: Makes me think of the old dispersal exercises in West Germany with the Harriers. |

That's the first Spitfire I saw with a bubble canopy. When did the Spitfire get the bubble? I tried looking, but didn't find anything.

The later marks, I believe that one is a Mk XVI, but basically it was a bit hit and miss which ones had a bubble canopy and which didn't. The Spiteful which was essentially a converted Mk XIV Spitfire had a bubble canopy, likewise the naval version the Seafang.
The Spiteful would have had more of a show but by the time it came into service the jet era was on us and prop aircraft were coming to an end. The Seafang, though, did act as a development aircraft for the Supermarine Attacker, the Fleet Air Arms first jet aircraft, and probably the jet aircraft with the briefest time in service, quickly being superseded by the superior Sea Hawk and Sea Venom. |
