What an interesting alternative Spit! I'm not familiar with AZmodel... are these good quality kits?

I reviewed an AZmodel Demon once (you'll find it somewhere on Aeroscale when interested) I found the quality of the moulding quite good but the parts were not containing any positioning holes or other assistance for modellers.

Still, the subject of this trainer spitfire is just awesome and that makes up for some technical shortcomings

I used to see one of these regularly flying over my home during the air show season. Someone had it hangered near Rhualt in North Wales. It was always great to see and hear it.
