Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX floatplane 1:72 scale
Includes: Plastic sprue, Photoetched fret, Decalsheet (waterslide)
In the spring of 1944, with the prospect of use in the Pacific Theatre, a Spitfire IX MJ892 was converted to a floatplane.
The Spitfire IX on floats was faster than the standard Hurricane. Its handling on the water was extremely good and its only unusual feature was a tendency to "tramp" from side to side on the floats, or to "waddle" a bit when at high speed in the plane.
