Hey people,
My son recently got interested in some war-era comics (!) and wanted some
planes with which to dogfight. I complied with this:
http://www10.ewebcity.com/dadoandrabbit/lego/spitfire.htm
I know there are inaccuracies (the cockpit way too wide, the landing gear
just a last minute add-on, and it could probably lose 2 studs in length),
but it has good play value, and stands up to some abuse.
Anyway, disclaimers aside, please let me know what you think.
