Default Re: BBC TV: The Repair Shop

Interesting misconception on today's (repeated?) programme- a handmade model of a P47 Thunderbolt brought in by a customer, and thought by him to be a Spitfire. I'm sure he knows by now what it really represents, but it's a perfect example of 'don't take the customer's word for it, do a bit of research' An intriguing story (i only came in half way through) but his relative appears to have flown Spits but made a model of a P47!)
