“The Pennants”

The images below have been created to honour the memory of the people who helped to build The Spitfire. In many instances photos and information have been provided by their families and friends and remain in their ownership. The pennant images are owned by The Spitfire Makers Charitable Trust but you are welcome to use them free of charge to create your own pennants.
