Where can you purchase spare aluminum sheets so that you can make modified skin area to make up for poor fit of standard skin provided with the kit?

You can get aluminium sheets at any building supplies store like Home Depot. This one should be thin enough for instance http://www.homedepot.com...-Sheet-801487/204225785
Of course modeling hobby stores should also carry them (at inflated prices)

Thank you for your quick response. That ref for that number home depot is 21 gauge which is .034 inches or .873 mm. I thought in the spitfire kit the thickness was .28 mm or .011 inches. Am I wrong?

The kit content provides a number of spare skin sheets across Stages 79, 88, 92 & 103
