Creative Cockpits: re-creating the iconic Spitfire
We manufacture full scale replica Spitfire cockpits, Me109/BF109 cockpits and ejection seats. We supply these fully constructed or as DIY flat pack kits using recycled plastic. We also convert real aircraft into flight simulators.
Authentic and cost effective replica Spitfire cockpit
Bringing the few to the many
I was inspired to set up Creative Cockpits while working as a volunteer at RAF Millom museum in 2008. As a pilot and flight simulator enthusiast, I was keen to share my passion for flying with as many people as I could. None of the exhibits were suitable for conversion to a simulator so with the help of a good friend Phillip Hall, we set about creating our own cockpit using CAD. RAF Millom Museum closed in 2011 but the cockpits continue to help tell the story of World War 2.
