{"product_id":"spitfire-mk-ix-relic-plaque-5x7-includes-spitfire-mk-ix-prop-blade","title":"Spitfire Mk IX Relic Plaque - 5\"x7\" | INCLUDES: Spitfire Mk IXe Prop Blade","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThis authentic artifact originated from a segment of the propeller belonging to the British Supermarine Spitfire Mk. IXe MJ730. In 2015, the aircraft suffered a propeller tip strike, resulting in significant damage that rendered the propeller beyond repair. Through a collaborative effort with the Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and Aces In Action, the propeller will be used to support a number of Spitfire art pieces. The propeller, constructed from laminated spruce wood, enhanced with fiberglass, an aluminum edge strip, and a rubberized leading edge, showcases the pinnacle of piston-engine technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/0864\/6196\/files\/Spitfire_Mk_IX_MAM_8_c2c21fd4-67c5-40ac-898d-9a09c56b424d_480x480.jpg?v=1726243656\"\u003e\u003cem style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSlices of MJ730 laminated spruce propeller - note the running bond pattern for strength\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/0864\/6196\/files\/Spitfire_Mk_IX_MAM_10_480x480.jpg?v=1726244460\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePosterior side of MJ730 propeller\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/0864\/6196\/files\/Spitfire_Mk_IX_MAM_9_480x480.jpg?v=1726244460\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAnterior side of MJ730 propeller\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/0864\/6196\/files\/Spitfire_Mk_IX_MAM_11_480x480.jpg?v=1726244460\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBroken tip of MJ730 propeller.
