Again a RAF camera question...attached a pic of two wooden parts which seem to be connected with the camera installiation in Spitfire PRXI...
Anyone recognize these?
What makes you think it's a Spitfire XI? The mounting of cameras was fairly typical. Here's the mount for a B,35 Mosquito (photo or Weeks' RS712 by Mel Johnstone). Note that the rear beam is missing.

The guy who owns them said they had come from a Spitfire PR XI...but couldn't find definitive info of exactly what and where. Probably because he has the earlier wooden cradle mounting in mind.Thanks for the photo's...cool info.
