The Supermarine Spitfire was indeed a remarkable aircraft. It was
already a legend in the making when the first Mk I machines began to roll off
the assembly lines. The Spitfire was one of the classic British fighters in
which the famous few bravely faced the mighty Luftwaffe.
Although the Messerschmitt Bf 109 was considered superior in certain
areas of flight performance, it was the Spitfire that eventually prevailed and
helped crush the numerically superior enemy.
In this book the reader will find clearly marked areas of skin
sections where flush riveting was used. The Spitfire Mk. IXs, as well as other
models of the fighter, were often assembled using a variety of parts, including
those originally designed for earlier versions of the
fighter.
