Here's an image that's quite interesting...

This is one of the aircraft converted from Vcs.
Note the identification light, the 'cheese cutter' aerial from the tailplane to the fuse, the early rectangular rear view mirror and the wider cannon blisters, all of which are different from the later, purpose built Mk.IXs

Or this one, same squadron, same vintage.

Here, note the smaller horn balances on the tail plane, and the u/c position indicator to the right of the cannon blister in this shot.
The horn balances were changed later on, and the u/c position indicator was removed from later aircraft.

Interesting detail of the hangar as well if anyone is involved with object modding.

This one shows the u/c position indicator better, and the cheese cutter aerial, both of which were only seen on the Vc conversions.


Interestingly with that shot, the aircraft in the foreground is a converted Vc, but the 611 squadron behind it doesn't appear to be, even though the two earlier shots were 611 a/c.

There are quite a few shots of the early spits around, it's just knowing when you're looking at them. Many shots of Spitfires are misnamed as Vbs or IXbs, or they're just called IXs.
