Corgi CS90650 Flying Aces Supermarine Spitfire

Corgi Toys have been creating metal die-cast toys in some shape or form since 1933. Their most popular range of cars and other vehicles includes a number of famous vehicles as featured in films and TV series, particularly British shows. Their models don’t require assembly and make great little gifts and keepsakes.

Regarded by many people as the most famous aeroplane the world has ever seen, the Supermarine Spitfire was one of the first all-metal monoplane fighters, at a time when many of the worlds air forces were still equipped with biplane designs. Establishing its reputation during the aerial dogfights of the Battle of Britain, the Spitfire would go on to see service throughout the Second World War and earn the distinction of being the only Allied fighter to be in continuous production during the conflict.

This lovely little Spitfire model is a great, low-cost gift for any aviation fan or model collector.
