OUTSTANDING aircraft!  Up until recently the Spitfire was my favorite aircraft (the Mustang has made its comeback with me).  Its great to see that it has lasted this long and is still cutting sky.

I think the Spitfire is quite possibly the most beautiful, graceful aircraft ever.

The P-51D still takes the cake as the best performing aircraft though.
