sorry but you're dead wrong. There was no such thing as a 4 mg spitfire.
As Banks put it the "a" was only put in the name to delineate the difference in sub division of a mark.
so essentially Mk.I = Mk.Ia .... Oleg and crew got some explaining to do.
and on the same issue... what exactly is a bf109E-B, as its listed in the flyables, I've never heard of that one before...
it seems like they are a bit confused by the names of the different variants.
The mkI was still called "mkI" even when it went from 2 bladed to 2-pitch 3 bladed to CSP 3-bladed.
If anything they would be more accurate in calling them "mkI early" or "mkI late"
