erm no, of course not, but for every step towards that thing I'd be having a "crisis" in my pants..

Isn't that the experimental 190C with the turbocharger?

Correct nice to see another 190 enthusiast.

one of the interesting threads that i have read the past 1 month :-D

Supermarineaircraft.com dont build authentic spits, they are 80% semi scale replicas with alloy horizontally opposed engines, if you want an authentic spit built you need to speak with a company called airframe assemblies based at sandown on the isle of Wight U.K.

These guys supply a kit 1:1 size Spit, you have choice of Allison or Merlin donks to power it.

Spitfires and Spitfire restoration projects are still relatively common aircrafts, I don't see why one should get a full-size replica, if anything to avoid the certification ballsache..
