Spitfire MKIX
Hi,
The Spitfire had eliptical wings and cliped wings, they could change the tips, is there somebody that has drawings from it?
What is the best way to make it as scale as possible?
Thanks
Tom

Wingtips.....
The three wing tips [standard, clipped and extended] are shown quite well in the Aero Detail book #27. If you dont already have this book, I suggest you get it, there is detail that you just cant live without.

For example when FW190 start to fly in France many MK.5 spits change wingtips to by more manoeuvrble

Hi Vic,
The one you are telling is the one I'll have, but I'm not asking for the real thing, but for a scale spitfire...maybe I told it wrong.
Thanks for the ISBN number braindead.
Sorry for that.

www.aeroplanebooks.com has the book for $29.95 plus about 5 bucks shipping. I don't know if they still have any in stock but it would save you a little cash.
