Are you sure????

Kidding aside, the Spitfire and the story behind it makes for the most beautiful airplane ever known to mankind.

Nothing can beat the old Stinson Sr-10. Here's my own design, 30% scale, 13.5ft. span model.

I really like the shape and colour scheme of this turbine model.
Does anyone know what model it is?
