The oddity, explained

Why is Spitfire unusual?

Spitfire appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Spitfire was a built in and lost on 26/03/1932. Wrecked against Glenelg Jetty in a storm. Heritage Atlas treats that specific classification-and-description combination as the oddity; the score is a comparative discovery signal, not proof of mystery or the supernatural.

Evidence and further exploration

The coordinate, category and description remain tied to the cited source. Comparative oddness helps discovery; it does not add facts that the source does not provide.
