Airfix 1/72 Supermarine Swift FR 5
In the years immediately following the Second World War, the pace of aircraft development slowed in Britain. In part, this was due to the fact that no immediate enemy was perceived, which is a natural reason for governments to slow the [...]
Airfix 1/48 Hurricane Mk 1
This is the old tooling of Airfix's Mk 1 Hurricane. I chose to model it "in flight" and mounted the aircraft on a clear plastic pole. The base is a fence post top covered with model railroad static grass. Mostly the kit was built [...]
Fiat G.50 1:72 Airfix

Airfix 172 Lightnings

I asked Santa for an F-2A when it was first [...]
Airfix 1/72 Harriers
I have been an Airfix fan for many years and in recent times their new moulds just keep tempting me to buy and build.
The Harrier kits are excellent, well detailed and an enjoyable build.
