'' Spitful Special ''
What if
The Supermarine Spitful was a British Rolls Royce Griffon-engined fighter aircraft designed by Supermarine to Air Ministry specification F./43 during the Second World War as a successor to the Spitfire.
The new wing was fitted to a modified Spitfire XIV NN660 ,in order to make a direct comparison with the earlier elliptical wing ,and was first flown on 30 June 1944 by Jeffrey Quill. Although the new Spitfire`s speed performance was comfortably in excess of an unmodified Spitfire MK.XIV, the new wing displayed some undesirable behaviour at the stall wich, altough not unacceptable, did not come up to the high standards of Mitchell`s earlier elliptical wing.
