Britain's newest Spitfire squadron based at Enstone Airfield, Oxford. Each aircraft is a 2 seat Supermarine Spitfire MK26B a 90% scale of the legacy marks. This 21st century version of the classic British fighter will ensure that the legend will live on forever. This squadron,the "ACESquadron", will include ground crews, military vehicle enthusiasts and living history players, making this a truly
unique club, with a regular calendar of events as a focal point for every member. We all know the reasons why most private pilots let their licences lapse and home builders fail to complete their aircraft: too much operating unsupported without any infrastructure or encouragement. This project’s vision is to give pilots an opportunity to use their licence to become part of a display team. There will be training from ex-Red Arrows and current Spitfire pilots and upon gaining their DA Display authorization, a calendar of events to take part in. The Supermarine MK26B kit planes have been designed for novice builders. There will be plenty of space and support from Enstone engineers and local LAA inspectors, so each section of the airframe will be completed expertly. All paperwork will be handled by Enstone experts so all your team has to do is build.
