Does it cost anything or do you have to have a membership?

Membership of the site is all you really need. The site is FeverGaming - The Pandemic is Coming go into the graphics section and start a thread (eg [Sig Request]P-38 Pilot) and then detail what you want and you should get it...

Gnomey, sorry to ask you but I cant get on for some reason. If you can and you dont have to, could you check to see if they could make a P-38 signature? If you can I would really appreciate it!

The Spitfire is beautiful, but one aircraft that comes close to it is one that I and others have mentioned before - the Heinkel He 112B, which also has an elliptical wing and was designed around the same time as the Spitfire

I prefer the Spitfire from all angles but the He-112 isn't bad either...
