identité de cette Hélice Spitfire?

Thank you for your information so for you it will be the Spitfire mk XIV or Seafire mk XV model if I have understood correctly.
Sincerely

The blade RA.10167 was of the Seafire Mk.XV or the Mk. XVII. I would say the blade is from Mk.XV with the four-blade prop. The Spitfire Mk.XIV to XIX used blades of different number. As memo serves it was RA.10379 or RA.10130 or RA.10127 but not the RA.10167.

That's why I was asking if anyone has any plans with measurements to date the aircraft model. So would it be a seafire mk XV or a spitfire mk XIV for you?

 

[Wurger]

Seafire Mk.XV.

 

[53B]

Ok I missed something how do you see the difference between a mk XV seafire & mk XIV spitfire blade?

 

[Wurger]

Mate, yet you have the drawing number of the blade RA.10167, don't you? So if the number is correct it is from Seafire Mk.XV or Mk. XVII because the versions used that blades only. The Spitfire Mk.XIV to XIX used different blades of different numbers. The blade lenght can be the same but but their cross-sections (airfoils) were different and set with the different attack angles. The prop for Mk.XIV was Rotol R19/5F5/1. Here you are the Mk.XIV blades. Note their drawing numbers.
