Description: A superb 1/72 diecast Supermarine Spitfire Mk.V fighter of RAF Tangmere Wing, flown by Douglas Bader, from RAF Tangmere in 1941.It is from the Atlas "Fighters of World War II" series. The models & stands are the same as those released under the IXO brand some years ago, so I'm pretty sure that this series have been made by IXO for Atlas Editions. The plane is predominantly made from metal & has many small detail accessories, & inter-changeable undercarriage parts. The model measures 5" (125mm) in length & has a wingspan of just over 6" (152mm). It is presented in a vac-form "sandwich" & outer card box & is new, mint & boxed. The Flying Mule says: Already a Hurricane ace with No. 242 Squadron, Wing Commander Douglas Bader was appointed to command the Spitfire IIA equipped Tangmere Wing in March 1941. He was taken prisoner in August 1941 by which time his total score was 20 and 4 shared destroyed, 6 and 1 shared probably destroyed and 11 damaged. The Spitfire modelled is P7966 from a batch of 1000 MkIIAs delivered between June 1940 and July 1941. As W/Cdr Bader's aircraft it carried the personalised code D-B.
