This could be very interesting, and at £87 too  |

I got to see the test shots of this and three built up examples (including the clipped wing option) in the flesh on Sunday at the Airfix event at Duxford. It looks amazing and will definitely be in my purchasing scheme for 2022. The team were very frank about why this and the other kits were chosen to be launched this year and there were also lots of discussion about other projects that had not been chosen. This year's launch will not please everyone and the debate about 'missed opportunities' and 'why didn't they do this or that?' and 'Bah! Another Spitfire.' will no doubt continue to rage on in numerous forums. However, seeing it close uphas reinforced my optimism for the Airfix brand. The genuine enthusiasm of the team is infectious and I say "Well done Airfix!"
We were also given a private showing of the Spitfire Evolution exhibition with behind the wire access which was phenomenal and the IWM team were also brilliant.

The MK. IX is a great version and a beautiful airplane so I wish their team well with this choice.
