I love it. Especially the screen preventing the instructor from seeing what his pupil is about to crash into Big Grin

Not that I wont appreciate your fine work but is there any reason why you chose to build a low back two seat Spitfire and not a proper two seat Spitfire?

When the two seat Spitfire was designed it looked nothing like the Grace Spitfire that your appear to be basing your model on, why not model an authentic two seat Spitfire like the one detailed below Big Grin

and here is what the original looked like just before it left England on route to Holland

If you need any help with drawings or reference photos for the rear cockpit or anything else contact me via PM, I have quite an extensive collection close to hand Big Grin

The front cockpit is quite easy but its not exactly the same as a normal single seat front cockpit, it was moved forward by 13 inches or so with some changes internally and the main fuel tank capacity was reduced, the cannon bays and cannon ammunition bays in the wings had fuel tanks fitted and the aircraft retained the machine guns for gunnery training, the rear cockpit is entirely new and I have everything you would need to create the real McCoy if you wanted to, I imagine there would be a lot of work involved. If you did I would really appreciate your work as H99 means a lot to me.

I can understand that, thanks for replying. When you are ready to do the TR.9 let me know I think you will find it very useful Big Grin
