The aircraft was destroyed on the 23rd May 1940 and the pilot, F/O John Gillies was captured alongside Squadron Leader Roger Bushell who led the patrol. Bushell was later executed in March 1944 by the Gestapo on the orders of Hitler after being recaptured in the aftermath of the Great Escape from Stalag Luft III. John Gillies remained a PoW until the end of the War.
The model has a scratch-built cockpit and the markings have been airbrushed.
