PeterA could tell you precisely, but I think the number of flyable Spits right now is around 54 or 55. Several of those, such as Harry Stenger's newbuild "Grace T9", Peter Monk's Spirit of Kent and the Kennet Aviation Seafire XVII, are very welcome recent additions to the flying population of Mr Mitchell's masterpiece...ain't it cool...

Currently, precisely 70 Spitfire have flown since the Battle of Britain film of 1968.

Of those 70, forty-two would be considered airworthy in the 2007 world season.

A further two, AR213 and BL628, are in with a sporting chance of making it by the end of 2007.
