Description

A distinctive 1:72 scale diecast recreation of Westland Lysander Mk I L6877/JV-W, operated by Royal Air Force No.6 Squadron from RAF Ramleh, Palestine, in 1940. Corgi AA36802 captures the unconventional profile of an aircraft designed for army co-operation and renowned for its exceptional short take-off and landing capability.

The Lysander was developed for reconnaissance, artillery spotting, liaison and light support duties. Its high-mounted wing, fixed spatted undercarriage and excellent low-speed handling allowed it to operate from small and improvised airfields close to ground forces.

No.6 Squadron received Lysanders in Palestine during February 1940 and later used the type during operations in the Western Desert. Although more modern aircraft gradually replaced it in frontline reconnaissance, the Lysander’s remarkable field performance later made it especially valuable for air-sea rescue, target towing and clandestine operations.

Limited to 4,050 pieces worldwide, this model reproduces L6877/JV-W in No.6 Squadron markings. Features include a detailed cockpit with pilot and rear crew figure, rear gun detail, rotating propeller and presentation display stand.
