The Supermarine Spitfire (Mk VIII) is a British single-seat fighter aircraft that was used by the Royal Air Force and many other Allied countries during and after the Second World War. The Spitfire was built in many variants, using several wing configurations, and was produced in greater numbers than any other British aircraft. It was also the only British fighter to be in continuous production throughout the war. ?A good engine power for cruising is 37% and landing is difficult but possible?

    @XVIindustries Just to be clear, I'm not saying you're wrong, just that my opinion differs ~_^

    @XVIindustries Again, Semantics. As far as I see, whether it is in service or not, it's still a fighter. The only time that changes is if the air-frame is modified to serve another purpose, such as a P-51 being modified for racing, or a B-25 being modified for fire-bombing. Just because a fighter is no longer used in that role doesn't change what it was designed to do. A bus is still a bus, even if you don't haul people around in it. As I stated before, it's a matter of semantics.

    Lol I believe that you should only say "is" when Dutch aircraft is still widespread and in service, derringer to it as a single seat fighter with the word "is" implies it is still a single seat fighter, saying it "was" a single seat fighter is correct because it once was, a fighter is only a fighter when it is in service, same with a bomber. in the end they all end up being civilian aircraft not operated by air forces. @A5mod3us

    @XVIindustries The plane still exists, so why should it be referred to in past tense?

    Exude me for being a grammar nazi but the first sentence "the spitfire is a British single-seat Fighter" is wrong, it should be: The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.(1-24 whatever MK this is) Was a British single-seat fighter. :)

    What variant is this? Because I have not seen that wing configuration before, or that colour scheme, apart from those two bummers, the fuselage is very if not amazingly accurate :) keep it up!
