Hi Andy,

If you are keen on seeing fantastic pics of Spitfires, try this.

Log on to Airliners.net when the opening page comes up check the list. leaving all the fields bare except "Keyword" into this enter Spitfire or any other aircraft you wish to see up to date pics of.
You will then have masses of fantastic photographs of the aircraft of your choice.
I use it all the time for my modelling habit.
If you have already tried it , sorry.
Cheers
Keith

Thanks Keith. Note the loaded weight of the F 24 is 12150lb while the Mk I in your first post is just short of 6,000lb!

Is the Spitfire the best looking plane that ever fleW? . My opinion is that it is in the top 4 for best looking planes.

I think the Spit is a great looking plane but I like alot of planes. I know we all differ in opinions Well here is some of my fav planes Me-109, Corsair, Hellcat.

We do differ, WH. That's what makes things interesting. So, my post, my opinion!

Cheers Keith, unless googling, I tend to steer clear of that site lest I be lost in there for days! Always up for Spits though so...

Keith, you should be able to put up 5 attachments at a time. But it maybe affected by the size of each attachment itself

Hi Kyt,
Thanks for your help.
I wish to keep enough quality so that any members wishing to double enlarge will be able to see a clear picture.
Most of my uploads are about 15cm wide @ 200 giving an average of about 1.5 in jpeg max being 3.8

Thanks for your continuing guidance.
Nice to know you are there!
Cheers
Keith
