The story of the Supermarine Spitfire has been told across many
years and the debate about it is enduring, yet the Spitfire remains
a true icon. For aviation enthusiasts, for historians, for
modellers, the word Spitfire conjures many stories and affections.
This book presents the Spitfire enthusiast with an up-to-date
history of the Spitfire-not just in its design and application in
war, but also as a flying memorial and as an aero modellers' vital
focus. The text examines recently revealed forgotten aspects of the
Spitfire story; by combining the elements of design, the story of a
weapon of war and a revered scale model, this book frames an
essential chapter in aviation history. Packed with original and
contemporary images and information, and displaying unique Spitfire
model collections, the narrative bridges an important gap and is a
worthy addition to the FlightCraft series.
