Interesting to see they've got the early canopy early radio mast and early pitot tube but looking at the sprue layout seems the two bladed prop is missing?

Looks like part # 35 on Sprue R is the two blade prop

Hi Tim

Thanks for the news - I'm SO looking forward to Eduard's take on early Spits! It's great that, despite all the ongoing Covid-19 problems, they're still aiming to have the kit on sale ready for the 80th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

So... Eduard... how about a Hurricane series next?

All the best

Wow how did I miss that, interesting way of molding it to be sure. Might have to get one or two of these to compare against Airfix's MK 1
