Hi All,
I'm building a large-scale model of Spitfire Mk
VB EP465, as flown by Geoffrey Wellum during Operation Pedestal in August 1942, and I'm just wondering what type of roundels the aircraft would have had on the fuselage - the painting "Spitfires - Malta Bound" shows Type A1, but from what I can find out, newly-delivered aircraft by 1942 would have been wearing Type C1 (ie thin white and yellow rings). I haven't been able to find any images of the aircraft other than that in the painting - anyone know more?
Many thanks in advance,
TOTD
