Well, we just have bring our noggins together over a pint and solve it.....

Sounds like a great idea! - But it's 'AZ-H' not 'OZ-H'
Not sure, but it might be a Roy Cross work;
For my Birthday last year (I was 14, honest!) the Landlady of my local pub did a jigsaw puzzle and framed it for me.
The picture was the classic box-art of the Airfix 1/24th scale Spitfire Mk1, circa 1969,

Sounds like you two have been imbibing (Beer), just a bit TOO often - Either that, or it's damn 'fine' Beer (&/or your memory is $h!te ; Hahahahahaaa)
That
'AZ-H' coded Spitfire (of 234 Sqdn), was just a later version of the ('minor-league'), AIRFIX
1/72 SPITFIRE, which came-out in
1979
Here's the Box-Art which I sincerely believe you WERE referring to ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whereas meantime,
BELOW = HERE's the 'Royal/Regal' AIRFIX
1/24th SPITFIRE BOX-ARTWORK, in all her 'Glory'
It's
AIRFIX kit "No.1201" & was released back in
1970, the year The Beatles broke-up & Jimi Hendrix died... NINE YEARS before 'AZ-H'
Gulp, I'm old enough to actually remember it coming-out, upon 1st-Initial-Release ! - I helped a neighbour's son, build it (He wuz TOO young !)
The 1970 'Box' above, is known (in the trade), as a "Type.3" aka "Red-Stripe", which were from 1965-1972 ; (Some lingered in shops till 1973)
It was "my time" of buying AIRFIX kits by the $h!tload, as we had NO Playstations or suchlike, just our own imagination(s) plus GLUE & 'staples'
(Back then, in 1968/1969/1970/1971 = ALL
'series.1' AIRFIX kits had paper-headers/instructions, STAPLED to a polythene bag)
Health n' safety (thesedays), would "throw a fit" - Cut fingers/thumbs (via staples), plus Glue-sniffing - "Ahhh Yeah Maaaan"
By the way,
1/24th = 'KL-B' was an actual 54 Sqdn 'Hornchurch' Spitfire (my namesake), flown by Al Deere, the New Zealander
I've got a photo' of him somewhere on USB, at RAF Hornchurch, w/Malan/Stanford-Tuck, standing where "TESCO"s is today
When I find it, I'll "sling it in" to this post - As it's relevant to both 'base' & 'thread' (plus actual pilot of 'KL-B'
Lastly, in either 1970/1971, Morcambe & Wise (Eric Morcambe), did a BBC sketch with THIS actual kit - ("Come-in 'B' for Charlie", etc)
