RFM Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 If I ever win the lottery, I will own a Spitfire. This find gives me hope, at least for part of that equation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swingset Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 That makes my boy parts tingle. Gryphon engine XIV's too, those were the pinnacle of fighter development of their day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmh_sprint Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 That makes my boy parts tingle. Gryphon engine XIV's too, those were the pinnacle of fighter development of their day.I just read that on a more detailed write up. If there are indeed 20 in crates this represents 1% of all Gryphon Spitfires build. The best part is that if they all become fly able airframes it will increase the number of flying Spitfires by almost 66%. There are currently only 33 flying Spits out of almost 21,000 built.
