My little tribute to the spitfire, 70 years old! (The DC-3 is older AND is still in service BTW)
Comments Welcome!

The Spit is still in service in Holland and the UK with their respective AFs. Just shows you can't keep a good plane down

But is the spit still FIGHTING? Serving its purpose? The DC-3 is, and plus, the DC-3 is still older. I respect the spit and its greatness, but lets face it, the Dakota is the greatest plane of all time.

You dedicated this thread to the Spitfire for a reason, now shut up about the DC-3!!

But if yopu but the spit up against the Eurofighter then....
If the two are in a dogfight, and the Eurofighter fires and misses on the first flyby, the Spit's won - the Typhoon would keep overshooting the battle.
Liking the shots Jake, very nice!
