This Spitfire as accepted by the RAF as MA298 in May 1943 and later used for ground instruction as 6462M. In July 1948 the Danish AF gave it the serial FMSm4 and used at Værløse until 1951 for the same purpose. It was then marked for preservation and painted as 41-401, the real 41-401 having been decomissioned in February 1951 and scrapped. It came to Stauning for display in 1998.
