Well at £3 you can't really go wrong, I've got another Hawker Typhoon that I rescued from a jumble sale many years ago. I was thinking along the lines of a 'push me pull you'. An engine at both ends.

The Wooksta!

Just won on ebay:

CMR Spitfire F21 (1996 tool)
CMR Spitfire F22

and, best of all
CMR Seafire FR47 (1996 tool)  :thumbsup:
They'd got it wrong - the wheel bulges are too small and the canopy is a standard Spitfire bubble, not the rounded type.  Result - whiff from the box. Means I can do another Spitfire FR26.
