Griffon-powered photo recce Spitfire. The FR.XIVe only carried one oblique camera, facing either to port or to starboard, to photograph a target area while turning. Downward-facing cameras didn't work at low altitude. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
