Does anyone have a digital version of the actual Air Ministry specification that resulted in the Spitfire?
Any help would be much appreciated.

AIR 2/2824 from Kew National Archives in London.
AIRCRAFT: Fighter (Code B, 5/6): Spitfire single-day and night fighter: specification... | The National Archives
Dont order it from them, they charge a fortune - I recommend you use Lee Richards to go and photograph it for you. He is very good, very fast and price is good; lee is at that
archive nearly every week.

My own copy is only a small fraction of it, because some of it was irrelevant to my book.

Thanks Calum. I was hoping to avoid having to visit Kew because it's rather more than a day trip for me. However, if that's the only route, then I'll have to plan for it.
Do you have a sense for the number of pages that constitute the specification?
Many thanks,
Mark

Just get Lee to copy it for you, its an online ordering system and the cost will be tiny in comparison to visiting yourself. I would have though that
Lee would charge you less than £30 for copying it (very approximate).
