“Rarity and high cost make it difficult to obtain these famous warbirds. The dream of Pieter Swart, the founder of RHA was to build a precise scale Spitfire for the modern-day aviator that would meet and exceed the original Spitfire’s safety, speed, aerobatics, and maneuverability. 8 years of combining complex design and engineering has made that dream a reality.”
There are a few projects out there ready for the backing to be built, of course they are going to be ground up and cost you a couple of million, to get this project airworthy I could see hoovering up 10 times that amount.
good luck to them but this time, I’m out.

DHFAN, not you, the ones that went off handbags a flying,, All of us have stuck by it, my YOUR was them not anyone who has frequently or infrequently posted or interacted
PS hence the smiley face
A lot of work went in to putting that event on and our own British pilots displaying some of the aircraft I think they did an amazing job, some great video from Andy Goodall who is a great champion of warbirds and shows lots of inflight video in his Harvard Wacky Wabbit, well worth subscribing to his channel
If people had just worn masks instead of thinking they are not going to give it or get it we would be in a better place.
The recent rise goes all the way back to those idiots who crammed onto beaches back in July, that is all forgotten now.
80 years ago we had to have rules, send your kids away, blackouts, food shortages all pulling together for the good but today they cant keep a safe distance from someone else.
This virus is not going away any time soon.
It has a whole new feel so good on Key for pushing forward, maybe the original old system could not of been changed as it must be getting on for a year sine it imploded.
If you are to premadonna to accept what has gone on then obviously its not the place for you, some of us have stuck by it and it is improving slowly and hopefully some new blood will arrive shortly.
At least I do not spend hours now going through pages of postings, its much more manageable for me now
Andy Goodall and Lee Proudfoot formation practice
It went very well didn’t it ! Lee P and Andy doing the business.
Looking great, brilliant update, thank you, and next?
Turkish airshow at Sivrihisar. is tomorrow 13th September live on youtube do not forget to tune in,
Todays practice
how incredibly sad, not only for the public who were to attend but also all the owner operators that will of again lost revenue, the biggest shame is that ‘The Few’ who this show was to be an honour too in this 80th year cannot be celebrated, their losses, their injuries, their determination in not letting this Isle be lost to Nazi Germany is not celebrated.
They did not want to be known as heroes but want to be remembered for the job they did and the sacrifices given, I for one salute one and all.
is it not a Norwegian Blue, its still on its perch
Superb !!
Thanks Trumper, I think Old Age got in the way
