The MJ755 was one of 77 Spitfires presented to the then Hellenic Royal Airforce to help rebuild Greece's fleet, delivered to Athens by Raf pilot George Dunn Dfc on February 27, 1947. In April of that year, it joined the 335th Royal Hellenic Pursuit Squadron in Sedes while from 1949 it was used as a training aircraft for military pilots in Tatoi.
