The Tr.9 Spitfires were used to train pilots for the IAC Seafire fleet and the course included gunnery practice, for although the Spitfire was primarily a trainer, it was equipped with two .303 Browning machine guns, one in each outer wing bay. In time, the IAC retired its Seafire fleet and the Spitfires took on their duties until in 1960 they too were retired. Most of the Tr.9 aircraft passed to the ground technical training school at Baldonnel where they were used as instructional airframes for the training of aircraft engineers for the Air Corps.

This is a superb model, as I had just had a flight in the aircraft I just had to buy it. The workmanship is first rate and is good value for the money.

A wonderful model of a beautiful aircraft. The attention to detail is superb and it is an amazing reminder of an incredible flight in her last year.

Can only echo earlier comments. Stunning model with incredible detail; looked great when viewing it at Duxford; looked even better when removed from box once home! Superb workmanship and careful quality packaging ensures safe transit. Fantastic reminder of a once-in-a-lifetime flight.
