QSAMIKE Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Good Afternoon Everyone......Model P6 Compass c/w Wooden CaseI had to do a little research on this first but it is a Model P6 Aircraft Compass for a Spitfire.....I understand that the P6 was used on Mk 1, 2, 3, and 4 and then switched to the P8 for the remaining Marks......I have tried to post a photo but am unable to do so from Windows 10 so I has to borrow one from another site but it is the same.....Now what to do with it as in my field / area of collecting the airplane had not been invented yet..... LOLMike Every time I try to fix picture I get this message.....Sorry, there is a problemSomething went wrong. Please try again.Error code: EX2

MervynHi Mervyn.....Yes and the best QSA is one to the RE Balloon Section.....This P6 still has the paper label on the box and matches on the compass dated 1940 and same supply depot in the UK......
