Yep, That’s the one I saw. 😉 That’s the way it looks in my memory.:cool:

I saw a spitfire for the first time in in the summer of 1990. This was at the airfield of Kortrijk-Wevelgem in Belgium. I was only 9 years old at that time.

That day, the OFMC simulated a dogfight with there spit MH434 and the Buchon (G-BOML).
For me, as a boy of 9 years old, this was a mayor experience. After all, having the honour te see a flying spit is always a heavenly experience!:)

I’ve never seen this. TOP quality. Thanks Ant! Everyone, You are a FOOL if you don’t take a look at this link!:cool:

Sorry Kyle àç-!-!ç- Uhm KYE, It won’t happen aigain!:rolleyes:

Its a pleasure Chris. Now we both can sleep well!:D

Seems such a silly mistake especially as they have direct access with the full size restoration.

Perhaps someone should tell them that their virtual merlin is gonna boil! :p :p

I have send a mail to let Aeroplane Heaven know about your deepest concerns:D 😀 .

Hello

The sim model that you refer to is being built in such a way that the
outer areas ( the easiest areas of the spitfire ) are to be done last.
The HFL blokes are looking at the model with a fine toothed comb and
pointing out little discrepancies. The sim version is going to be
exactly the same as the restored version have no fears on that. It is
why the model is taking a lot more time than some of our other projects.

We do know about some of the discrepancies on the sim model. Thankfully
you haven’t picked up any of the other little areas that need tweaking.
The HFL guys have though! All of them are to be worked out by the time
that the model is finally sent to HFL for final approval. Hope you got a
good computer system as we have upped the detail quite a bit and it
therefore needs a better than average computer to run.

Happy Flying

So sleep tight. I believe the model will look as real as possible.

Greets,

Nice pics for such a camera. The B-17 and the waco do look heavenly.

The fireball from the P51C is nice. Maybe you can post this pic in Dave Homewood’s thread : The best airshow airfield attack.
