This is the one produced by the ex-Wingnut Wings guys right? It does indeed look a nice kit from what I've seen of it - I hope the new company does well.

First I've heard of this company; I didn't know the name of the company that got Wingnut Wings. I should have guessed with the description of the kit above. Bruce, looking forward to seeing this box opened. Enjoy!

If I wasn’t so stubborn, I’d throw out my sidelined old Revell 1/32 Spitfire Mk.I and get one of these…

Oh nice! A classic fighter indeed.
Reminds me I saw my first Spitfire in 2 different museum when my family & I visited Ottawa this past August. One was hanging from the ceiling at the Canadian War Museum (Mk.I) the other at the Canadian Aviation Museum (Mk.XVIe).
Seeing it up close, it’s really not a large aircraft compared to say... a P-47 Thunderbolt. I can say the same to the Bf-109 that’s on display there as well. Both the 109 & the Spitfire were close to the same size overall.
