Re: Dragon Spitfire Mk.Vb No. 616 Squadron 1941

Hello 1250, the tail wheel is almost accurate the only thing wrong is that the wheel spar should run up into the fuselage without the slight upturn.
Is it possible to cut that last bit off and reglue?

It is 'do-able' and that's exactly how I will redo mine with references handy.

Just don't try your hammer & spanner on it Jim!! Seriously it does work as I've fixed mine.

Found it easy to cut and I also replaced the banana shaped aerial on mine

Great shot Johnny. It appears that you have a fantastic MkV sitting at the end of your garden. Beats garden gnomes!!

Looks sharp. Pictures like that will shame me into fixing mine when I get a spare moment. I tend to have a pile of repair jobs, both planes and ships, and when it reaches critical mass I'll do them all at once.
