This aircraft wears markings to commemorate Otto Smik, a Czechoslovakian RAF pilot in WWII after whom the Tactical Wing at Sliac has been named. Smik was a fighter ace who shot down more than 10 German aircraft after being shot down himself when attacking German aircraft on the ground at Gilze-Rijen AB, Netherlands on 3 September 1944. With the help of Dutch resistance, he managed to return to his unit. On 28 November 1944 he was killed when his Spitfire was hit by German fire during an attack on a railway area in Zwolle, Netherlands.
