Mike, it might be easier to help you if you specified what you mean by the 'only-true-scale. 
If 1/72, try Preisser figures, if 1/48, nothing comes to mind but there must be something out there. 
And if you can't find a seated pilot, why not try a conversion? It's really not that hard. I only ever did it once but was very pleased with the result. I just looked at my own clothes to see how the wrinkles should look and if he's sittin in a cockpit, you really only need to get the front looking respectable. I found the hardest part was filing away that which either made him sit too high and the upper arms which prevented the fuselges halves from closing up tight. In other words, the parts you don't see anyway. E.Honor and Glory to our Ancestral Gods

A request for some ot help with British pilot figures in the only-true-scale, if I can.  I'm building a diorama for IPMS that requires a pilot seated in a Sp****re but neither Roll Models nor Squadron appears to have any.  Actually, SQ does have a Hasegawa set but it doesn't show a seated pilot, though it might include one.
 
Can anyone help, either with the name/title of a set that I can purchase or, if you have an extra, could you send me one, with appropriate trade or whatever?
 
TIA.
