Here you find some Spitfire cockpit replica parts that I have made in recent years. They are made for static use for enthusiasts, cockpit builders, simulators and museum planes.
If you have anything to ask about these items, please contact via Contact page.
Please note that I don’t make parts for airworthy aircrafts, these are made for static use only.
Best regards, Harri
Replica Wobble Pump
My latest item is Spitfire wobble pump. The pump situated starboardside of cockpit (see the image). A hand wobble pump was used on early Mk IX, XVI and XIV Spitfires for raising fuel pressure before starting the engine. On later aicrafts the pump was replaced by electric booster pump. The replica pump is made of steel and aluminium and is for static or display use only. A nice item in the cockpit sections or simulators.
We currently have one in stock. You can find it from Sales page.

Spitfire door for simulator cockpits
Flap Lever with Valve Body
The dummy valve body with separated rear pipe connection. The rear connection can be adjusted to the desired position like in the real one. We use BSP 1/4″ thread pipe connections.

Undercarriage Pump for Mk I
The undercarriage pump was used in early Mk I Spitfires. Pumping the undercarriage up was awkward and often made the plane sway on takeoff. The pump was changed to a much more advanced control device during 1940 (see the U/C-control page down), but this is the right choice if you want to make exact copy from the early war Spitfire cockpit.
The replica pump is made of steel and aluminium. Levers are spring loaded and they feel like real ones. The LOWER – RAISE lever can be locked by pulling the knob and the large lever has a resistor that gives a sense of pumping motion. The pipe connection thread is BSP 1/4″. Except for a few details the pump is very faithful to the original device.

Mk I Throttle Quadrant early
The early Mk I quadrant is basically the same as used in the Mk II and Mk V but it doesn’t have an airscrew control box. The kind of quadrant was used in the 1939 and early 1940 Spitfires when they were equipped with different types of propeller.

Mk II – V Throttle Quadrant
Quadrant with plastic airscrew box, boost cut-out lever, mixture lever, undercarriage master switch and a locking gear for friction gear. There is all but the horn switch. The levers are anodized aluminum and the texts are made with stickers. This is the most handsome looking Spitfire Throttle Quadrant of all.

Throttle Quadrant Gear with Bracket
Spitfire Mk I – V quadrant shaft with two friction gears made of steel. The shaft, which has 25 mm thread, is welded to the lower bracket. This is the heart of the Spitfire quadrant and includes the most difficult parts to manufacture.

The unit was fitted left hand side below the instrument panel. This replica unit contains a dimmer lever and the UP/DOWN switch with valve body where the pipes can be fitted. The frame, the dimmer lever and the dimmer cup are made from aluminium. The switch with valve body is metal. I use BSP 1/4″ thread pipe connections.

Undercarriage Control
The unit with the chain guard and two mounting brackets. The spring loaded lever moves and can be locked to up or down position. In this model the indicator doesn’t move – it shows IDLE all the time. The front plate and the knob are plastic. The valve block is made from metal, not the resin, like the reproductions usually are. That’s why I have made them with a rough metal surface and unpainted (like the lever also), so they feel like original ones, though the block was painted usually black, I think. The chain guard is made of aluminium sheet and the colour can be primer green or black. Pipe connections are BSP 3/8″.

Fuel Cock Control, single lever

Flap Control Lever, early
Used from Mk I to Mk V Spitfires.
The cam lever and the base are made of steel. Inside is a spring loaded piston made of steel. Inside of the unit is a spring loaded piston which is also made of steel. The spring loaded lever gives the feeling that it’s connected to the real valve.
