This poor, little, old thing was part of that big collection I recently spoke about, and I am wanting to refurb it, so any info would be useful.

Macchi MC 200 Saetta and would have seen action against the RAAF in North Africa.

I think I may have decals in an AML kit of one with an Australian connection?
