RAAF-05 – Crew | John Jenkins Designs
Behind every operational fighter aircraft stood a team of ground personnel whose work was essential to keeping it flying.
RAAF-05 – Crew represents the RAAF ground staff who maintained, serviced and prepared aircraft during the Second World War.
Their responsibilities could include refuelling, rearming, engine maintenance, repairs, inspections and the countless smaller jobs needed to return an aircraft to operational condition.
In the South West Pacific, these duties were often carried out under demanding conditions of heat, humidity and rough forward airfields, far removed from the glamorous image of the fighter pilot.
RAAF-05 is particularly effective beside one of the John Jenkins Spitfires, where the figure helps transform the aircraft from a stand-alone model into part of a working wartime airfield.
Available from The Military Workshop – a highly useful John Jenkins Designs figure representing the ground crews who kept RAAF aircraft operational.
