Hi everyone
I was so pleased to see AIRFIX still up and running and best of all I love the new look as well as their commitment to producing quality kits at a good price.

I really like the the new packaging, box art, intruction booklet with colour profiles of the aircraft.

As young modeler in the '70's it was AIRFIX kits that allowed for an affordable means to build models. In addition it was AIRFIX that produced kits that no one else had, for instance the WW 2 Italian aircraft SM-79, Paul Difiant and the HE_177 just to name a few.

Best of success and looking forward to the NEW TOOLED HE-111 and other aircrft kits especially the 1/24 Mosquito!!
