    Google Spitfire and find that the full size wingspan is @ 36ft10in.........37 feet
    Multiply that span by 12 and then divide by the model span of 63 inches(1600mm)
    Result is 7.047 which equates to 1/7th scale.;)

            TG65, MotionRC Cockpit kit, Callie Graphics, and an 'Aces of Iron' pilot even if you don't go for a full mod to a different Mk. This kit is amazing and I will own another soon. Best, LB

                              This is not in your category of brilliant works, but with the help of my friend Elbee, I do my best. And , as usual, I learned something new , namely, I'm sticking cocpit by UHU POR (www.UHU.com-Germany), because Fix N FLEX (www.deluxematerials.com UK 12 dlrs) proved to be very bad, slow and in a crumbs. I did not recommend it to anyone, of course, that's just my opinion.All the best and thanks for your time.

                                Jos, Looking good so far. There is also a great product called "Beacon Foam-Tac" available through MotionRC and it adheres to anything. Glad your work is going well. Continue posting pictures as you progress.:Cool: Best, Steve

                                        That's sad news. I thought it was really touching when she (re)signed her plane in the spitfire movie. I have that film on BluRay - will have to watch it again soon.
