There’s definitely a romanticism surrounding classic aircraft and these kits are great fun to assemble too
Most of us grew up watching films and TV shows about fighter planes and bombers, and playing games where we’d be a fighter pilot in an imaginary dog fight with our friends in the playground! It’s easy to imagine yourself as a pilot – an individual, changing the course of a battle against all odds or flying off into the unknown!
These lovely little vintage aircraft kits are great for a range of model builders from beginners and children, to more intermediate model enthusiasts. You’ll need to decide for yourself which suits your skill level, but we’ve indicated on each a recommended range.
