discussion Spitfire Mk. VI, 124 Sq 1941 - Italeri 1/72

[Guest]

During the February of 1941 the RAF decided to prepare a new version of the Spitfire capable to intercept possible high quote incursions of new german bombardiers as the Ju-86.

With this aim the Spitfire Mk. VI (type 350) was developed with a higher wing area, recognizable for the triangular wing tips, and with a pressurized cabin.

Of this model only less thsn hundred were built and used in 1943, soon replaced by the more performing Mk. VII.

Looking good Francesco.

It's always nice to see a well built Spit, and even better when it's one of the lesser seen marks.
