Airfix Submarine Spitfire Model Kit
For nearly sixty years, children have enjoyed making Airfix model aeroplanes and cars, and for nearly as long, the Haynes series of practical car manuals have helped DIY and professional mechanics alike. Now the greatest name in automotive publishing and the Number 1 name in model kit construction Airfix have produced a model kit based on what is truly a British icon from WW2.
If you made one of these as a kid or know someone who did, chances are that the model that was lovingly poured over has bitten the dust - so here now is the chance to re-live that occasion and encourage a new generation of Arifix model builders. The Supermarine Spitfire is a 1:72 scale model of the famous British fighter plane.
The set comes complete with paint and everything you need to build this superb replica
including 1 x Spitfire kit 5 x paints 1 x Paintbrush 1 x tube poly cement 1 x instruction leaflet. Suitable for Age 8 years Makes a brilliant gift for anyone who made Airfix models as a child or for fan of the iconic World War II fighter. Today the sight and sound of a Spitfire 'strutting its stuff' is the high point of any airshow. More than 22, 000 of these aircraft were built and the youngest survivor - a Seafire varient first flew in 1941, making it 70 years old. However preparing for such longevity was not a consideration for those who designed and built these aircraft. During hard-fought periods of the war, a Spitfire had an average life experience of just a few weeks. In the years following the war the number of airworthy Spitfires plummeted and by the mid-1960's only eight
remained in Great Britain.
