Yeah, It’s Another Spitfire

Adding to my continually growing Spitfire collection (I may have a problem), here’s my tenth completed kit for this year, the AZ Model 1/72 Spitfire Mk. VII. This is a pretty good kit. It has good detail and good fit. I decided to try [...]

A Heller of a Spitfire

I spent a great day at the Spirit of St. Louis air show in Chesterfield, Missouri yesterday. The Red Arrows put on a great show. They’re about half way through their North American tour. Make a point to see them. The Spitfire in [...]

Airfix Desert Spitfire IX 1/72

Hi iModelers: I built a lot of models up to my teens, then abandoned the hobby for years. With my recent retirement, I've built a couple and hope to build a lot more. This is my first one (after a special car model I built as a present [...]

Another one Spitfire FR Mk.XIV (Airfix 1/48)

I know, I know, but I just can't stop building Spitfires, and it's another one in the headlines from my side – a new Airfix FR Mk.XIV. I was waiting for this kit to appear in my local hobby shop, and here is the result. Spitfires are my [...]
