I think this is a replica of a MkIIa Spitfire (P7966), presented to the RAF by the Isle of Man and flown by Wing Commander Douglas Bader’s . It was a Presentation Spitfire paid for with money given by the Manx Public and wore the legend ‘Manxman’ in 4 inch letters below the cockpit.

It was built at Vickers-Armstrong’s Castle Bromwich Factory and delivered to 45 Maintenance Unit on 24th February, 1941. Then it was issued to 616 Squadron as part of the Tangmere Wing on 23rd March, 1941, where it was flown by Wing Commander Douglas Bader up to July 1941. It remained with 616 Squadron until August 1941.
