The serial number of this aircraft would seem to be in doubt.
According to AIR81/3959: https://discovery.nationalarchives.g...ls/r/C16688057
Dewey was flying P7495, which is at variance with P7365 given in the ORB.
P7495 was SOC on 19 Nov 40 according to: http://www.airhistory.org.uk/spitfire/_prodn%20list.txt (the Air-Britain serials book records the date as 29.11.40, with no known fate)
P7365 on the other hand seems to have survived to be SOC on 6 Oct 43.
That said, AIR81/3928: https://discovery.nationalarchives.g...ls/r/C16688026
records that P/O Soden was injured after bailing out of P7365 on 25 Oct 40.
A confusing situation....
