Hobby Master HA7810 depicts Spitfire Mk I X4179 flown with RAF No.19 Squadron, linked to George “Grumpy” Unwin at RAF Duxford during the Battle of Britain period, dated September 1940. This subject is anchored to Unwin’s personal story, including the “Grumpy” nickname referenced and the short, intense run of victories that followed once he reached No.19 Squadron.

A great choice for a Battle of Britain display, ideal for collectors who like named-pilot subjects and classic early-war RAF fighters in 1:48.
