How much does a Spitfire cost?

[quote]Anyone who tells you a Spitfire costs a million quid is lying. I own several.

Nevertheless they are rather nice Spitfires. I never had the patience to do that myself.

I fly them every day

Ozzy,

Lokking at Dave 'Funhouse's Website about his home built spitfire cockpit I reckon he could make all the parts you need.

the question would be how legal would they be as airworthy parts?

Dave has been helping me 'cos he is a jolly nice chap However his parts aren't airworthy.

Well, I think the closest I'll ever get to owning a Spitfire is placing a bid on fleabay for some "authentic", clapped out Elevator Trim Indicator. Although I will continue to buy lottery tickets.....miracles do happen.

[ozzy72]

Be careful buying on fleabay as there is a lot of dud stuff out there, even I've picked up the odd doozey and I'm rather genned up on Spits.....
