My prize aviation history bit is the logbook of a Spit XII driver who flew with both 41 and 91 squadrons, the two RAF squadrons that flew the Spit XII in combat.  It would be nice to have the bird to go with that logbook :)

 :aok Cheap parts, for a warbird

 :aok Good on gas, for a warbird

 :aok Plenty of useful load

 :aok Plenty of range

 :aok Plenty of room for the wife, AWAY from the cockpit

I think it's a pretty good choice.

I always get flak for liking this plane, but as it closely resembles my favorite plane ever(Rare Bear). I'd take this.
