New Spitfire & Focke Wulf 190's are being built

Surely the ultimate kit-built aeroplane at the moment (although a Focke-Wulf 190 is being built in Germany!), Spitfire Aircraft Co Ltd offers customers the chance to own their own, full-sized Spitfire, not a "half-scale toy", without the hassle (maintenance, insurance etc) of keeping the genuine article.

Spitfire Aircraft Co is owned by Russ Harmuth, who has been in the aviation business for 40 years. Russ apprenticed at United Airlines as a mechanic, then at Ground Equipment Engineering as a design engineering draftsman. He's also a current pilot and holds A&P and IA mechanic certifications. Not only that, but Russ has been restoring champion quality antique aircraft for 23 YEARS!

Some of his prestigious awards include:
- Reserve Grand Champion (Stearman Speedmail)
- Grand Champion (Stearman Speedmail)
