Hi Ken,
        Can you give me any specifics over what in particular is inaccurate on
the Chrono Spitfires? I eventually found one on Saturday, and overall,
it looks pretty much like a Spitty to me. Some of the detail is a bit
coarse, stuff like the fuel filler is too small, and the engine bay is
rather toylike, but generally, I think I can turn it into a nice replica
(obviously the steering needs to go on the correct side!). I just
wondered if you had put it against any plans (I've not had much chance
yet),
        Cheers,
                Bill.
