Spitfire Vb AB968 ZF.H was known as Haberbusch – Haberbusch and Schiele was a famous Polish beer.

“Tadeusz Schiele, who joined 308 at Northolt in 1941, arrived at the station shortly before dinner. He found three empty places at table, and noticed the sorrow of the WAAFs as they finally cleared them away. He himself had to move a dead pilot's belongings out before he could go to bed that night. The following day, he went out with the squadron on a mission, from which two pilots failed to return. Again, two empty places honoured their memory. That evening, as he was leaving the mess, one of the WAAFs, a pretty girl with a cockney accent, called Jean, came up to him in the dark and asked him to show her his plane. They walked over to the Spitfire. She ran her hand over the wing of the war machine, and then turned to him. She was only seventeen, and he was shocked by the emotional intensity with which she kissed him and then clung to him. Later, as they sat side by side on the wing of the Spitfire, listening to the dull thud of bombs raining down on London and watching the searchlights sweeping the sky, he looked up and saw the stars of the Great Bear shining brightly. The next morning he asked his mechanic, Staszek, to paint the seven stars of the constellation on the fuselage of his plane.”
