Anyone up for a challenge? (not a game no worries)

[Spitfire'd]

Hello,

So it is probably somewhat obvious that I am a WWII enthusiast. It's a great period of history and one that I love to study. I also enjoy games from that era, DoD, Company of Heroes, PTO (no one knows what that is) and World of Tanks in particular.

When I first started playing DoD (years ago mind you) I found a great picture of a Spitfire to go with my name. I used it as my spray, and eventually I started using it as my steam picture, as well as my forum avatar. You can see it to the left.

Here's my dilemma and the subsequent challenge: I can't find this picture anywhere on the internet anymore. My dad took up the challenge and he and I have searched and searched for it with no luck. It is probably my favorite picture of a Spitfire but I cannot find a bigger version of it.

So if anyone is up for it, or if anyone is bored looking for something to do...I would love the help. Closer inspection of the picture has lead us to believe it might actually be a picture depicting a Spitfire from the infamous 303 squadron, mainly known for being comprised of mostly Polish pilots. Also responsible for the funniest scene in the movie Battle of Britain but that's a different topic.

Thanks for your time, best of luck! I can't promise any rewards, maybe casino cash? I still can't figure out how to donate that stuff...

OMG PTO was awesome. I'm thinking of getting a Sega emulator just to play that game again.

Challenge accepted.

So far, all I've got is this which looks really similar, but drawn in a different way:

This is made harder by the fact that most of the time typing in anything to do with Spitfire for some reason comes up with pictures of ponies after a few pages.

EDIT:

There you go. All I had to do was drop your avatar into google images. Handy new feature, that is!

BrambleG, you are seriously my hero. I'm chuckling that you got the ponies too...

Thank you so much. You have no idea. I might have to try that google images trick!
