airfixpeter Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Probably one of the worst airfix Spitfire's I have done took me six months to beat into something looking like a spitfire. But I won't be doing any more. So I will leave up to you to judge 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 In the end, she definitely looks like a Spitfire Vb – full points for perseverance and dedication! Airfix box illustration is wrong about the aerial wire, however. The Mk Vb had VHF radio sets with an internal antenna in the antenna post – no wire! I found a photo of VF-D after what looks like a landing mishap or a crash landing. Someone has even hung his leather jacket over the antenna post and there's no corresponding attachment point on the rudder, so you can safely cut the wire off. ;-) Kind regards, Joachim 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
