In the 1st number of the new series "Classic Aircraft" the reader will get a really close look at some of the most iconic aircraft that were used mainly in the Second War War or immediately after it. And what better way to start it than with the legendary Supermarine Spitfire, more specifically the Mk.IX and Mk.XVI. Of these types, 39 are currently in airworthy condition. In this 116 page book, over 30of them are included!
The action pages include some stunning, never before published air-to-air photographs. Both the high back and low back Spitfires are included. We show the different wing variants; c-wing, e-wing and clipped wings. As always, a huge maintenance chapter is included in the first book of our newest series! As with all our books, the aircraft in this new “Classic Series” will be shown both in action and in detail. The latter includes the entire fuselage, wings, vertical tail and of course the cockpit.
