Part of my scaled WW2 series - All aircraft built to scale, with accurate weights, speeds and flight characteristics to the original.

The Spitfire is the nemesis of the German Bf109 - Just as fast, but with a tighter turning circle. Dispite this, problems in manufacturing meant the Spitfire took time and money to manufacture in large numbers.
