I've built the 1/48 FW-190A-8.  That's an excellent kit, but is quite 
challenging to build due to all the opened panels.

The Eduard 1/48 Spitfire 22/24 is the Airfix kit with an Aires cockpit. 
Be 
aware that the cockpit simply doesn't fit!  I found this out some time ago

when building a Seafire FR47. I posted my experiences of the disastrous 
build in this group at the time.
