New Spitfire for RAFM Hendon

I know this isn’t a modelling forum, but I saw this and thought it was something out of the ordinary. An amazing piece of work!

At least the drawings kept at Hendon, are the right scale !! for me the cockpit is a truly remarkable build; 11 years though, now that is hard labour.

A terrific tribute to RJ Mitchell if I ever saw one! Would be great if she had a 1/5th merlin to run up..!:cool:

A very impressive skilled build. I am pleased that it will be on public display because so many models only appear at annual special events.

Shame that the creator of the Spitfire can’t team up with the creator of the 1/5th scale runnable Merlin!!!

But if they did, what would they do if they didn’t fit!!!!!!!!

Really stunning. That shot of the rudder’s amazing. And why am I not surprised at his next project?
