Amazing Thank you sooooo Much

What model of Spit is it, Mk. Vb? Ix? Looks like a 9 (IX)

The video inspired me to make Spitfire PA 944 (I make static models )

Rogi,

Sorry, I have no other details on the model of the Spit, however, I AM looking forward to watching your progress as you build your model.

Spitfire is a Mk XI, Blyth actually says what Mk the Spitfire they had was at 5 min 52 seconds into the film.

Would like to see your model of it too (used to make these as a kid [Airfix] Loooved that glue then )

I guess, its probably #2 next to actually being shot down and alone in Germany, with no ticket home and you have to rely on a bag full of luck.
