Spitfire 18s

If someone could photoshop this in SM845’s markings, you’d get an idea! 😉

Lol, Daz.

When you see and hear one of these babies up close (esp the Griffon ones), then the drool-factor redlines big time !!!

Waiting to see what the DazDaMan Spitfire ends up looking like…. 😉

Phil, why would you want saving?! :p

ooohhhh

Now that is nice Turbo 😉 , HELP, I CAN FEEL THE OLD SPITITIS COMING ON AGAIN 😀 :rolleyes: , save me, Cheers, Tally Ho! Phil, :diablo: (” Gut Nacht”)

Hi Daz,

You seen this pic??

Cheers

The Griffon would be about as big as the Spit itself! 😀 And ten gallons of fuel would last how long?? 😉

Can’t wait to see your Spit with a Griffon up front. :rolleyes:

Nice, Merlin 🙂

I’ve been thinking what my Isaacs Spit might look like – and it’s something like these! 😀

Daz. No historic pics in my library but a couple of more recent ones taken at DX during the Rolls Royce centenary event.

More but too big by about 40mb 🙁 , How to make it smaller with a Pent 2 and 98 SE, Any clues Gents :confused: , Cheers, Tally Ho! Phil :diablo:

Just to keep the ball rolling. 2 images from the old Arco-Aircam Series “Supermarine Spitfire Mk. XII-24” book

Nice, Phil. That’s a MkXIV, but still a nice piece of kit! 🙂

To nackered to care what they are.

Daz I seen these 😮 , Might be what you want, Very nackered must crash, Sorry if wrong Mark :rolleyes: , Cheers Lads, Tally Ho! Phil. :diablo:

Excellent – I just went through my little reference library and found no Spitfire 18 pics at all!

Thanks for those, Dan.

I’ve just noticed something, though. SM845 currently carries the markings worn by the Spitfire in the bottom pic. Notice it carries C-type roundels, so SM845 should carry the same (not that it matters, of course! ;))
