I am assuming that the Spit is the Assuie replica, but who makes the FW? Is
it a kit or a one off job?

FW was made by Terry Kronk of Toowoomba Australia - have to find out more
info re FW and Spit.
Will get back asap.

The Spit is a kit from the US, Jim Wickham sells the kits and can arrange
assembly if required.

I believe the FW was built from plans drawn by Gordon Brooker. IIRC it's a
80% semi-scale experimental.

To me, the FW makes a better-looking replica with the availabel
engines. I have no idea about flying qualities of either.

Thanks for that Raven.
They both looked great on the ground - did't get to see the Spit in the air
(I rushed outside too late) but got a look at the FW as it flew over home -
was going like a scalded cat!!

I believe Terry Kronk has a second FW.

Take a look at www.flugwerk.de if you are interested in a FW-190
------------------------------------------
NO, use John Mee3 at comcast dot net (remove the spaces and do the
obvious with the "dot" and the "at"

After many years of development by Mike O' Sullivan, the approximately 80%
scale Supermarine Aircraft Mk 26 Spitfire is in production for the
Australian and export markets as a Kit built Aircraft.

Supermarine Aircraft's Mk26 Kit is not produced in high volume. The smaller
number of kits ensures a high product standard and excellent builder
support. Staying close to the original unmistakable Spitfire lines, the new
aircraft is a two-seater version of the proven Mk 25.

For further information visit the website at www.supermarineaircraft.com.

The factory address in Brisbane is;

Supermarine Aircraft P/L
388 Hawkesbury Road,
Moggill,
Queensland
Australia 4070.

If you are in the area and would like to visit please phone them on (07)
