What about one of these...Mk 22, or any "bubble top" Spit?....to be honest , you can have your Mk 1's and whatever, once they they changed the canopy and hung a Griffon on the front ...they had a real Spitfire winkyy.gif

Marty the only bubble top I've ever had is Plane Designs MK XVI



It behaves badly in FS9 so would not vouch for FSX
But it is more gorgeous than a Realair Spit.

Its a great shame RealAir did not do a teardrop MkXIV , the very example Sir Tim owned till his very unfortunate accident 1996 .

Connor , thats your Mk16 , i would go though the history and that is only a plastic jobbie - the real one is in Wigram , but has its own fame a movie starring Kenneth Moore as Douglas Bader .

Now that's what I call a backyard aircraft land and take off in your own backyard save driving to the airfield and cheaper than a chopper notworthy.gif thumbup1.gif clapping.gif
