American Spifires?

Quagmyre hi,
regarding schemes for those spits that you've already got, i guess you can try aeromaster or eagle cal....as to new info, the man you want to speak to is bob swaddling ...he is "mr spit"!!!
search the forums for his posts if he doesn't reply to this one and mail him direct; i have done so and he has been very helpful.
good luck in your search.
regards,
nick

Hi Quagmyre, maybe this book save your soul...or follow the advices of Nmayhew and good luck...

Thanks for the 411. I will deffinately try to contact Bob.

Research is what I'm gonna be limited to over the next week or two regarding this hobby. Partially severed my left pinky finger this morning on some broken glass. Another delay on my Avenger.

Hi Quagmyre
Fabio has one of the right books. However, there are two parts in the Ventura Publications books.
There is another book that deals with the US Spitfires titled "Spitfire International" by Air-Britain Publications.
In your list of US Spits you include the PR Mk IV. The USAAF never flew the PR IV.
They did fly the Mk IX so maybe this is what is confusing you.
The US Navy flew Seafire L IIc's.
The USAAF flew Mk Va's, Vb's and Vc's and tropicalized Vb's and Vc's.
The Spitfire International book lists EVERY Spitfire flown by the US including all warbirds and non-flying museum Spitfires.
Sorry about your pinky.
E-mail me direct for any specific information.
Cheers
Bob S.

Again. Thanks to everyone for the 411 on the American Spitfires.

Bandage is off the pinky and mobility is returning. JOY!
