Out2gtcha Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Tremendous build! The colors really pop and look very in scale. The sky undersides really look great and give it some added uniqueness. Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen any photos of the Malta based Spits that show the mysterious 'bump' on the outboard end of the upper wings? We have several photos, but we can't figure out what it might have been for. Only seen on Malta based airplanes. Thanks Jennings No I haven t seen them. Can you share few of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a matter of the fact this bird was painted to classic Dark earth, Dark green over Sky , when moved to Malta dark green replaced by Dark sea grey. nmayhew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
