Spitsair & Corfire

[NARSES2]

That Corfire looks just beautiful..that's prefect Tom 

Totally agree 

[Martin H]

Hm, yes. I can't say that cranked wings work too well on a Spitfire.

Oh I dont know? Harking back to the Supermarine type 224 me thinks.
Not to sure id want to try and taxi it thou. Forward vison on the ground would be below zero lol

Wasn't there an inverted gull-wing proposed for a Supermarine naval fighter in the late 30s?

Supermarine Type 224 was designed as a replacement for the Gauntlet

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarine_Type_224

That the early one, I think there was one later when discussing Seafires?

Verr good, but you missed the opportunity to put a huuuuger diameter prop on the Spit.

I agree, should have swapped the propellors over so the undercarriage would work for both aitcraft.

Found something in the Morgan&Shacklady book. I'll see if I can make pics.

VERY interesting! That's the Chrysler engined XP-47 on the cover, isn't it?

I like that folding wing Spitfire, much more Whiffable than the way they did it in the RW.

Thanks Tom and Pertime

And the V tail looks amazing! I wonder how many bits of Spits I have in the spares box?

I got major Type 224 vibes from the Spitsair! And I love the idea of a P-47 wing and gear on the Corsair, that will be awesome.

I'm really, really digging those concepts. This is one of those times I wish I knew CAD and had a 3D printer. Saved for later!!
