An example, he said, that not many people knew, was the famous plane that won the battle of Britain and was composed entirely of wood, the Spitfire

That is not right! The Spitfire was not a wooden aeroplane. It was made of metal. You should go to the Science Museum. They have a new exhibit of a deconstructed Spitfire for all to see.
