    Good item. There is more spitfire history than I was expecting. I thought it would be like the owner's workshop manuals that are available for cars and, while it would not be realistic that I would ever own a spitfire, it would have been more interesting to me. I was initially attracted to the book because the idea of a Haynes workshop manual for a spitfire amused me, but the contents of the book are not the same as the typical Haynes manuals.

    Haynes Supermarine Spitfire Owners Manual

    This is quite a good book but there are a lack of detail photographs. In this respect it is nothing like as good as the Hawker Hurricane Owners Manual by the same publisher. If you just want to look at Spitfires on the ground or in the air, there are many books that do it better.

  • Great manual of a flying icon!

    Great manual! Have been wanting to get hold of this manual for some time. My Grandfather helped to build Merlin aero engines for Rolls Royce and aeroplanes like the Spitfire during WW2, so to gain some insight into a little of what he did through this book will be fascinating.

  • Another excellent book from Haynes.

    Very informative, massive amount of photographs and great reading. There's that much information and diagrams that it feels like you could build one yourself.
