Wildcat JV508 of 890 Squadron goes into the barrier, May 15 1944, while HMS Atheling worked up with the Royal Navy's East Indies Fleet.

My assumption is that it was written on after the aircraft got home, or it would never have taken off. However to get home it must have turned thousands of times. Also how can you hit a tree without totalling the prop.

Beats me.
Well if they were timing magnetos they could have just neglected to erase the waring from the blade but I do think, more than likely it was done after the aircraft arrived home and inspected. I wonder what the propeller blade cut out of the picture looked like?!?
