This is a famous OLD kit, as you can see in the last pic: manufactured in Shanghai China on 26th. Nov. 1995. I build it OOB, and borrow an officer from a 1/32 Matchbox '15 British combat troops', the bicycle is from a Tamiya 1/35 kit.

RAF80 is the last squadron to operate spitfires in service, they had 6 F24s station in Kaitak airport, Hong Kong in 1950-53.  I did try to search the aircraft number on internet, unfortunately, PK682 was not in the 6 F24s.
