Spitfire Specification Data Cards
Twelve double-sided Spitfire data cards for teens and adults, covering marks, roles and the Merlin and Griffon engines. Every figure comes from a named source printed on the card, including two Mk Vc cards from sources that disagree and a “How many built?” card, with two card games, blank cards and a quiz.

Pages: 10 (including cover and credits). Sizes: A4 (210 × 297 mm) and US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), both PDFs included in one zip.
Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter. Inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; covers are dark, so start from page 2 to save ink. Cards: print double-sided, flipping on the long edge, on thin card.
Every fact is checked against named source pages from the RAF, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, Imperial War Museums, the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, Ingenium (Canada Aviation and Space Museum), the National Museum of the US Air Force, the Shuttleworth Collection and Britannica (checked 29 Oct 2026), and the sources are listed on the pack’s credits page. Figures that can change, such as the production totals each source gives, are printed with that date. Where sources give different figures, such as how many Spitfires were built, each is shown with its source.
Photos are public-domain wartime RAF and Royal Navy photographs (IWM collections, via Wikimedia Commons) and a CC0 Smithsonian photo; drawings, charts, puzzles and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work, and aircraft drawings are stylised, not scale plans, with no real markings or logos. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the Royal Air Force, the Ministry of Defence, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, Rolls-Royce, any successor to Supermarine or Vickers-Armstrongs, or any museum named. Names are used only to identify the aircraft, engines and organisations discussed.
