Corgi MK1 Spitfire L1004 Squadron Leader A Johnstone 602 Squadron 1/72 Scale Diecast Model with Stand

The now legendary Super marine Spitfire needs no introduction. It is quite simply one of the most iconic aircraft in the world. L1004 was flown by Squadron Leader Alexander ‘Sandy’ Johnstone, CO of No. 602 Squadron. During the early parts of the War, the Squadron performed defensive duties in Scotland, however, in August 1940 the Squadron moved south to join the Battle of Britain in the skies over Southern England. They went on to have a truly remarkable record during the battle – scoring the second highest toll of enemy aircraft! Their performance is aptly summed up in a message from HQ11 Group. “Group Commander sends warmest congratulations to 602 Squadron on their magnificent combat at midday when they destroyed eight fighters and shot down two others without loss of pilots or aircraft creating a record for months past.”

This Limited Edition (1500 Pieces only) Die-cast metal model comes in 1:72 scale with stand and is approximately 5 inches long with 5 1/2 inch wingspan.
