Yup, quite unfortunate, and with the photos being maxed out size-wise, there really isn't much we can do but ignore it.

on #2: I never knew that Supermarine built a contra-rotating prop spitfire.

They did and it is very fast... but it was unfortunate cuz i had a problem with the engine there thats why theres black smudges form the exhuast.....

LOL i was bout to go raicng in the grand canyon and i pulled a few high g's and then massive puffs of oil and smoke came out and
couldn't turn the engine on worked out because the effect looks cool... and can see its contra-prop. ;D

You'll blow the engine on the Spit easily if you over stress it. Your manifold pressure in the RASpit should be round about 8 during normal flight any more and the engine will blow sooner with higher pressures.
