Oxford Diecast's newly tooled Percival Proctor made its first appearance very recently as the Mk V, the civilian version of the Mk IV. Now can you can partner it with the military model which comes as used by the RAF as a Radio Trainer. The 1:72 scale model represents the British aircraft produced by the Percival factory in response to an Air Ministry requirement in 1939 for a radio trainer and communications plane. Essentially it was a single-engined, low-wing monoplane deployed by the RAF and the Fleet Air Arm during the conflict. The type was not a great success and only 1143 were ever built. However, here you see it in the role for which it was intended, as operational in 1945 with military serial number RM221, decorated in a green and brown camouflage colour scheme to the upper body and yellow underneath, complete with RAF markings.Regardless of its shortcomings in real life, the Mk IV Percival Proctor did its job up to the end of the war when it ceased use within the armed services.
