Did a quick check -

20 Hurricane Mk 1's served during the war, no mention of any Spitfires until the 1950's, and they were the training version.

Postwar trainers that flew well into the 50s.

That bird is PV202 that had a wartime career with the RAF.  The IAC had a number of 2 seat Spit trainers as well as a number of Seafire IIIs but this was all postwar.
