Responsibility details are not available.
A sheet with the markings of two particular machines: the reconnaissance Spitfire FR Mk.IX aircraft with the serial numbers MJ518 and MK374 of 414 Squadron RCAF. According to the manufacturer, the Basic Set version contains only the markings specific to these aircraft; the national insignia, that is the roundels and the fin stripes, are not in the package. It is the variant for modelers who spray the national insignia through masks. Anyone who wants the markings complete in one package will reach for the full version, Aviaeology ADD24009-2. The manufacturer also supplies the Spitfire national insignia separately in the Aviaeology ADD24C109 line.
On 28 June 1943, 414 Squadron RCAF was reclassified as fighter reconnaissance and together with 400 and 430 Squadrons formed 39 Reconnaissance Wing RCAF, established in August 1943 and disbanded in August 1945. It flew tactical reconnaissance for the ground forces and, from the end of 1944, photographic sorties over Germany as well. Unlike the purely photographic machines, the reconnaissance version of the Spitfire FR Mk.IX kept its armament and additionally received cameras, so the pilot could both photograph and fight. The manufacturer lists MJ518 and MK374 as machines of 414 Squadron in this role.
The decal is applied on water: it is slid into place and settled with a setting solution. On riveting and curved surfaces a decal softener is added, after which the film is pliable and must not be touched. A smooth gloss coat belongs under the decal, otherwise the edge of the film will silver; once dry, overcoat the whole.
This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The basic kit, glue and paints are not part of the package, unless stated otherwise.
