Yeah, I considered that one. You'd have to modify the tail also..
Many, many Mk.IX's were built with clipped wings and the original short chord, rounded rudder as well. In fact you can find almost any combination of wing/rudder/canopy if you look hard enough!
Now that was helpful.. Can you get me more information on that bird or point me into the right direction? I looked but didn't find much.
Ram,
That particular Spitfire, NH188, is now on display at the Canadian National Aviation Museum. It is relatively common in that it is a clipped wing Mk.IX but very uncommon in that it has the brown/green camoflauge which is incorrect for a Mk.IX. It does work very will with the Top Flite ARF though since it too is incorrectly camoflauged! More information can be found at the link and a Google search would probably turn up even more.
