I stumbled across MODEL AIRCRAFT MONTHLY magazine (July 2009 vol.8 issue 7) http://www.sampublications.com/sampubs.htm
It has a great article on Spitfire MkVc units vs. Japan over Darwin and Burma. I didn't realize the Japanese launched over 60 missions against Darwin! The article is very informative, has many photos, and also sideview drawings of Spitfires. Darwin is a forgotten battle! Maybe not to Aussies but it is to the rest of the world. I appreciate this magazine having an interest in the less-well-known battles and just thought I'd share this jewel with everyone else.
