Aha, that explains it, the YT kits are from ESM, they are distributed in the states, richard rawle does an 80" plus spitfire, that could be another source, http://rawleaviation.blogspot.co.uk

Just a thought, you say your spit is 1/6scale, do you k
now its span?

Hi Alan

The span is 89 inches so Richards parts should be great as he makes them in fiberglass, many thanks for your help.
