Spitfire tropical filter..

Sat Feb 23, 2008 4:10 pm

This is a long shot here but was wondering if anyone has any detailed drawings or pics of the butterfly shutter for the front and also the cowl loft lines for a Spitfire MkVc Trop.My design guy needs them to finish off the factory drawings for our project.Cheers.

Hey Rossco,

I wish I could help, but alas, I cannot.

Do you mean to say that you're working on a Spitfire project that'll have the tropical scoop?

I've always liked the look of the tropical scoop. Do you have a website to see updates on the project.

Cheers,

David
