A short clip of one of these aircraft can be found online on the Supermarine website – looks like a helluva lot of fun!

I’m not sure – I got an e-mail from the owner a while ago asking if I was wanting to come up and give it a look-see. Not to buy, just to “try it on”… 😉

There was an article on it in one of the comics (Pilot or Today’s Pilot) and it looked a really good prospect, great value compared to the full size…and once in the air, who can tell?
Speaking of replicas, I saw the ickle P47 advertised that was subject to a magazine article, has it been sold now?

Not only does that engine sounds better than the Jab, the spinner is nicer too. See you can get a 2nd-person in the rear seat 😀 Almost like the real thing in that its still a great aeroplane to watch and probably even better to fly. Want one!

Great clip!
If I see the first seconds of the movie, it does look like the V-6

Yep, the 80% scale all-metal job.
I’m not sure, but I think this example has a V-6 engine fitted.

Nice!
Is that the Ausie replica?
