Auto Credit Based on rcplane's Supermarine Spitfire MK1.

This is the most scaled and realistic Spitfire you will find on the whole of the Simpleplanes Website. Before take off be sure that you are using most of the 'trim' as it is quite nose heavy. As you start moving use full left rudder as it tends to drift to the right when still on the ground. However once this WW2 legend is in flight it is as smooth as ever. Like the real thing cutting through the skies. Enjoy.

    @rcplane well seeing as I don't know you I don't know what you think. I just know what you write and make guess based of it thinking you are serious is a reasonable assumption

    Nor do I believe that it's the most realistic plane on the site.. Does the word Exaggeration spring up to mind when i said that?! This game is about building aircraft and having fun not critisizing such tiny points which you somehow expect me to pick up on?! At least it looks like a basic "spitfire".. Thank you for your comments anyway. I have taken some of them on board.. However some are silly and I'm unable to change since working on iOS

    @cobalT Oh, I see it now. Eh, it's such a small detail, I don't blame anyone for forgetting it.

    While the claims of 'most realistic' are debatable, this is a very nice looking plane nonetheless.
    @cobalT Only the 'Trop' variants had the nose air intake

    It's nice, don't take the critiques the wrong way, side profile is very accurate.

    You missed the 6 degree dihedral of the main wings. Spitfire wings aren't level like yours.
