Very well done, great model.

It inspired me to look up the Dinah on Wikipedia as my father did shoot one down over Burma in WW2. I was surprised to read this: 'On September 25, 1944, Flying Officer Wittridge shot down a Ki-46, using a personally modified Spitfire Mk VIII. Wittridge had removed two machine guns and the seat armour, and also polished the wing leading edges to gain extra speed.'

That's my dad! - but I hadn't appreciated how hard the Dinah was to catch until I read the Wiki article.

So thanks for your build!

Cheers,

-Don.
