Going back to the original thread, is this really a rivet-for-rivet plans build of a Spitfire, or a 1:1 replica?

If it's never intended for it to fly it would seem bizarre to put all the effort into building the structure, the strength and lightness of which would never be needed.

If it is real, surely for one person it would be many thousands of hours to fabricate and build one from plans?

Puzzled...
