looks cool, to bad the V is full... :-(

That is very cool. No one should have any issues with panel lines & rivets & decals with the SPITV. :aok

Yeah, if you stick your face 2 inches from it with a high power flash and a mega-resolution digital camera :x
Stand 5 feet back and look at it on a typical day and you'll never see them.

Jeez you are cranky lately Krusty. Always with the negative waves!

OK I'm going to be picky too :)
While that's one of my favorite Spits, the paint scheme is not correct. The folks who painted it chose to go with it, but that particular Spit wore the later Gray/Green camo not the dark earth/dark green.
It would be nice to see someone do the interim paint scheme on the Spit V with the early roundels and later gray/green camo though.

Eh? Eh? See? Sometimes things need to be pointed out. :old:

OK I will bite on this one. :D
Australian war memorial shots I took last year no zoom & I am about 6'5" tall. I took these two from a normal stance to shoot these in other words my camera was on my face at the time. I could not reach the bottom of the wing with my arm outstretched so I am guessing it is mounted about 12 feet or so up. Camera in question.

I do understand your point though I just thought it was an opportunity to post the two pics for reference purposes.

These are stock photos I got off the web to put this Spit MKII in context.

lyric1, which museum is this from? I've never seen that one before. I think it may be a Mk.V though, looking at the larger oil cooler tube under the port wing. Mk.I's and II's I think, had a tiny, almost semi-circular oil cooler.

Late production I and IIs had the larger oil cooler. Looks to have been up engined too. Like most of the early Spitfire museum survivors, a vet of the OTU's
