Spitfire FXIV MV268 JEJ - A few questions...


Johnson

Recommended Posts

I'd like to build the Sword Spitfire F XIVE and use the Techmod decals included for Johnnie Johnson's MV268/JEJ as flown in June 1945.

 

I'm confused about some aspects of the later Griffon powered Mk.XIVs, I've done searches on BM, but no luck. So a few questions about details;

 

  • Exhausts? Round or fishtail? Edgar said round were introduced in 1946, but I'm sure I've seen wartime photos of Mk.XIVs with round ones.

 

  • Cannons? Early tapered ones or the later bulbus (ogival) shaped ones?

 

  • Wheels? 3 or 4 spokes?

 

Any advice and guidance gratefully received.
