With a tail hook added and folding wings, so it could be flown from and
Onto carriers at sea.

Thanks Carl for finding that

Thanks Carl. Seeing that made my day. Every other Seafire I've ever seen has been a bubble-canopy type. I wasn't even aware a razorback model was built. Great stuff.

I have two of the old Hobbycraft Seafire XV kits. One I'm going to convert to the sexier (IMHO) bubbletop Seafire XVII (basically the same aircraft with a bubble canopy) and the other is getting converted to a Spitfire XII.

Now, let's see who here knows Spitfires. What do the Spit XII and the Seafire XV and XVII have in common with each other but not with any other marque of Spitfire?

Thanks so much guys for the comments. I enjoyed it and thought fellow builders and friends would enjoy it....
