XP model (FlyingIron) of the Mk IX - photo-rec colors.

Great!! I love the Flying Iron Spitfire, though I find it makes quite a performance hit on my aged system. Do you think they over-did the rivets/bump mapping on the model? For some reason, I see this phenomenon more in XP aircraft than P3D .. though I seem to remember a Hawker Tempest for P3D that had the most awful super-sized rivets.

If there is a classic of the airplanes of the WW2 ... it's the Spitfire.

Think you're correct about the rivets - perhaps not the fuselage so much, but I believe a lot of the Spitfire was flush riveted for airflow. Takeoff handling has really improved since they added the 'simple' switch.

"If there is a classic of the airplanes of the WW2 ... it's the Spitfire." ....and the 109...for me. the F series.
