| I'm not sure about this one Karl, and I've 'clocked it' myself. It could very well be the old, I think early '70's kit. If it is, I seem to recall the wing was not very accurate, being too 'pointy' I think, and the underside centre section is 'flat'. I know it'd cost more, but the Tamiya Spit Mk1, or the Airfix one, can be made into a MkII by adding the Coffman starter blister on the front starboard nose.
