It's easier to spell "Spitfire" than it is to spell "Crossfire."

There were only three Corvette Spitfires made. Or was that Spotfire? Or maybe OnFire. Oh well.

I think my grandfather flew a British spitfire in WW2 for the RAF! Maybe it's a tribute.

Yeah? Well the first had an RR Griffon. The NCRS would getcha on that and make you park with airplanes that weren't historically "correct".
