It has changed locations a few times within the airport.
Incidentally, on Oct 16th 1939, the Spitfires of the City of Edinburgh 603 Squadron intercepted and shot down the first enemy aircraft during the first German air raid on the British Isles.
The model on show is a GRP 1:1 replica.
Apparently it's a MK IX airframe painted in the colours of a 603 Squadron MK I
