I debated whether to put this in "Military" or "Civil", but decided that as the aircraft has a Civilian registration it's probably more appropriate here. If that's incorrect, please let me know.
This is an alternative scheme for the Airfix Tr9 two-seat Spitfire. In fact, it is the boxtop option (Irish Air Corps no 161) at a later point in its existence. It wore this scheme from about 2009-2010 for a few years, but now flies wearing its original serial number and the codes "JW". The full history can be found here under that number: http://www.airhistory.org.uk/spitfire/p094.html
A good set of photos of this bird by various photographers at various points in its career can be found on ABPic and no doubt on other sites. https://abpic.co.uk/pictures/search?registration=G-CCCA&date_taken=&information=&tag_fields=%5B%5D
