In that case it would appear that Reggiane Re.2000 is even faster then the Spitfire...

I really like 'em both, but the Spitter is my fave. Thanks for sharing.

He He! Maybe it's a double bluff - the aircraft is really a Tiger Moth!
The Spit could be to scale, but comparing the pilot of the jet to the outline of the Reggiane, I don't think that one ia quite to scale.
