The most correct things may say just engineers that were involved in production. I knew just one such old engineer, that died alredy.

Very true. I remember when I modeled the He 162 cockpit, the amount of differences between the flight manual and production models was enough to make me quite dizzy.

With that said, what "model" of the Spitfire cockpit will be represented in SoW? An early model? Late model?
