Alan James and his Spitfire - Radio 2 Thu 8.35
Hi,
Anyone listening to the Chris Evans show this morning (Wednesday 7 Dec) around 8.30 am will have heard a mention of Alan James building a 'full size' Spitfire in his shed.
I understand from Alan that he'll be on the show around 8.35 tomorrow (Thursday 8 Dec) talking to Chris so do listen out for him. We couldn't hope for a better person to represent homebuilders!
Finally the Daily Mail publishes something interesting:

Regards,
Colin

Brilliant.
Pity the content can't be added to the LAA website, for reference, in future.

It's a 60% scale Spitfire of all wood construction and it made the Daily Telegraph yesterday. He thoroughly deserved to be the first winner of The Prince Michael of Kent Trophy for best aircraft at this year's Rally and he's a delightful chap to boot.

Thanks for putting that link in Steve.
And what a great job by Alan James by putting his story over so calmly and without unnecessary hype in the short amount of time available.
Another great ambassador for the LAA !
