As you are accepting Spit 8 skins for the Spit 9, will you also accept Spit 7 ones?

If I recall... The spit 7 was the pressurized high alt version that never made it into service in ANY numbers. Just a couple here and there, as test craft. It wasn't needed, if I recall.

Yup, but as they are accepting Spit 8 for Spit 9, why not Spit 7?

i.e. (in early stages)
Make a nice change from the green/brown, green/grey variants.
Med Sea Grey over PRU Blue Hi alt scheme.

I mean... if it's such a rare plane, chances are it was never used in any major battles, and most likely not useful for use in scenarios, etc.

Not that I want to dampen your spirits

Submit it anyways!

True, there were 'only' 140 built.
O.K. then how bout a MkIII Seafire skin on a Mk IIc?
I remember a scenario involving Seafires and Zekes, found the actual skin!!!
Only prob is that it has wing insignia the same as the USAF, i.e. port upper only and stbd lower only. Unfortuneately there is only 1 lower wing, so the insignia would be on both lower.

Current list of models accepted, please add if you know any more.

Spit 9 - Can use Spit 8 skins.

I doubt they'd accept a PRU unarmed skin for the Spit9.

Not an unarmed PRU skin. Its a Mk7 in Hi alt camo which just happens to have PRU Blue on underside.
Put it on hold until anyway till I can get some sort reply on various models that are similar but not in the planeset.
