2nd Lt Jens Müller from 331 (N) Squadron next to Hawker Hurricane BD734/<br />

FN-D «Odin» at Skeabrae on the Orkney Islands.<br />

331 (N) Squadron was initially equipped with Hawker Hurricane Mk. I, and shortly after<br />

obtained Mk.IIb. In November 1941 Spitfire Mk.IIa replaced the Hurricanes and, as the<br />

serviceability of the Squadron’s aircraft had proved to be high, these were again replaced<br />

with factory-new Spitfire Mk.Vb’s with 20 mm cannons. This was done before the Squadron<br />

was posted south to North Weald.<br />
